# Instructions:

01 - Begin by cutting your sirloin into perfect 1-inch cubes. Heat your olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper, then sear them until they develop a beautiful golden-brown crust.
02 - Set your perfectly seared steak aside and add the mushrooms and minced garlic to the same skillet, letting them sauté in the flavorful pan drippings until tender and aromatic.
03 - Pour in the heavy cream and sprinkle in the freshly shredded Parmesan, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let this mixture come together into a luxurious sauce.
04 - Return your steak bites to the skillet, letting them warm through while the sauce thickens to the perfect consistency. Finish with a shower of fresh parsley and serve over your favorite pasta or rice.
