Steak with Mushroom Sauce & Creamy Mashed Potatoes

Directions:

1. Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:
– In a large pot, boil the potatoes until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and mash with milk, butter, salt, and pepper until creamy. Set aside and keep warm.

2. Cook the Steaks:
– Season both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper.
– In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and butter. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove steaks from the skillet and let them rest.

3. Make the Mushroom Sauce:
– In the same skillet, add butter and sliced mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are golden and softened, about 5 minutes.
– Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
– Pour in the beef broth and let it simmer until reduced slightly.
– Stir in the heavy cream, season with salt and pepper, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

4. Assemble:
– Plate the mashed potatoes, place the steak on top, and spoon the mushroom sauce over the steak.
– Garnish with fresh chopped chives and serve immediately.

Enjoy this comforting and elegant meal!
