💡 Tips
- Let steak rest before slicing to keep it juicy.
- For richer flavor, deglaze the skillet with a splash of wine before adding broth for the mushroom sauce.
- Add parmesan to mashed potatoes for extra creaminess. 🧀
If you want, I can also give a one-skillet version where you cook steak, mushroom sauce, and green beans in one pan for minimal cleanup and maximum flavor.
