Description

Cheesy Garlic Zucchini Steak is a hearty and flavorful dish combining juicy seared steak, tender zucchini, and a cheesy garlic butter topping. It’s quick, comforting, and perfect for any night of the week.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Ribeye or Sirloin Steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 medium Zucchini, sliced into rounds
  • 4 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 cup Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese, grated
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • Fresh Parsley, for garnish


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven’s broiler to high and position a rack 6 inches from the heat source.
  2. Season steak slices with salt and pepper. Mix mozzarella and parmesan cheese together in a bowl.
  3. Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak for 2–3 minutes per side, then remove and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant. Add zucchini and cook for 4–5 minutes until tender. Return steak to the skillet and toss to combine.
  5. Sprinkle the cheese mixture over the top and place the skillet under the broiler.
  6. Broil for 2–3 minutes until cheese is golden and bubbly.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use freshly grated cheese for best melting and flavor.
  • Don’t overcrowd the skillet to allow proper browning.
  • Dry zucchini slices to avoid excess moisture.
