Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pan (cast iron works best) over medium-high heat. Add the cooking oil and let it shimmer, ensuring the pan is very hot.

Carefully place the seasoned steaks into the hot pan. Sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time to your desired doneness. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, add 1 tablespoon of compound butter per steak to the pan, allowing it to melt and baste the steaks.

Generously sprinkle 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan cheese over the top of each steak while it is still in the pan, allowing it to melt slightly and form a crust.

Remove the steaks from the pan and transfer them to a cutting board. Let them rest for 5-7 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute. This is crucial for a tender steak.

While the steaks are resting, warm the mashed potatoes if they are not already hot.
⏱️ 2 min

Slice the rested steaks against the grain into thick pieces.

To assemble, place a portion of warm mashed potatoes onto each serving plate. Arrange the sliced steak on top of the mashed potatoes.
⏱️ 2 min

Garnish each plate by sprinkling additional grated Parmesan cheese over the steak and mash. Sprinkle fresh chopped chives over the top.
