Notes

Use a meat thermometer to check the doneness of the steak. Aim for 130°F for medium-rare. Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before slicing to keep them tender and juicy. Adjust the amount of garlic and Parmesan cheese based on your taste preferences. For variations, add fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary to the garlic butter.
