Method
 

Cooking the Steak
  1. Season the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Cook the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness.
  4. Remove and let them rest.
Making the Mushroom Sauce
  1. In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter and sauté the sliced mushrooms until they are browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
  3. Pour in the beef broth and let it simmer for a few minutes until it reduces.
  4. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper.
  5. Let the sauce simmer until it thickens slightly.
Preparing the Mashed Potatoes
  1. Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until they are tender.
  2. Drain and return them to the pot.
  3. Add milk, 3 tablespoons of butter, salt, and pepper.
  4. Mash the potatoes until they are smooth and creamy.
Serving

Notes

For a more flavorful steak, try marinating it for a couple of hours before cooking. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness: 130°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium. If you like your mashed potatoes extra creamy, add more milk or butter during mashing. Store leftovers in airtight containers in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
