Before cooking

  • Source mushrooms 4 large/6 small also gives 4 oz; explicit weight used.
  • Worcestershire sauce often contains anchovies. Fish is flagged as a possible allergen; check the actual brand.
  • Salt is to taste: use a pinch first, then the remainder to taste; no measured split is given.
  • Ingredient quantities are scaled from 6 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks.
  • Adapted from Olivia. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested.
  • Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness.

Cooking flow

Read left to right. Each merged cell acts on the ingredient rows feeding into it. Parallel branches stay separate until plating.

Thinly slice steak, peppers, onion and mushrooms. Briefly chill steak if necessary for slicing.
Check whole-cut beef or pork reaches 145°F, then rest it at least 3 minutes.
Brown mushrooms dry with pinch of salt; add half butter and peppers/onion; brown and reserve.Return steak and vegetables to deglazed pan with cream cheese; top cheeses and cover skillet until melted.

Method

  1. Vegetables. Brown mushrooms in a dry cast-iron skillet over medium-high with a little of the measured salt. Add half the butter with onions and peppers, cook until browning starts, and reserve the vegetables.
  2. Steak. Season steak with the remaining salt and the pepper. Heat the remaining butter in the skillet and sear steak in uncrowded batches for 1–2 minutes per side. Transfer steak out.
  3. Combine. Lower heat to medium. Stir Worcestershire, vinegar and garlic into the pan to loosen browned residue. Return steak and vegetables, add cream cheese and stir until it melts.
  4. Melt. Scatter mozzarella and parmesan on top. Cover the skillet until cheese melts. The publisher also permits 3–5 minutes under a broiler, which requires an oven-safe skillet and oven.

  • 2.7 oz Baby Bella mushroomssliced · Source says 4 large or 6 small mushrooms, weighing 4 ounces. Uses its explicit weight basis.
  • ⅔ tbsp Worcestershire
  • ⅔ tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ⅔ tbsp minced garlic
  • 1.3 oz cream cheese
  • ⅓ cup shredded mozzarella
  • ⅓ cup shredded parmesan
  • ⅔ tsp salt

Cook

  1. Vegetables

    Brown mushrooms in a dry cast-iron skillet over medium-high with a little of the measured salt. Add half the butter with onions and peppers, cook until browning starts, and reserve the vegetables.

  2. Steak

    Season steak with the remaining salt and the pepper. Heat the remaining butter in the skillet and sear steak in uncrowded batches for 1–2 minutes per side. Transfer steak out.

  3. Combine

    Lower heat to medium. Stir Worcestershire, vinegar and garlic into the pan to loosen browned residue. Return steak and vegetables, add cream cheese and stir until it melts.

  4. Melt

    Scatter mozzarella and parmesan on top. Cover the skillet until cheese melts. The publisher also permits 3–5 minutes under a broiler, which requires an oven-safe skillet and oven.

Where your attention goes

Stages can overlap. Do not add every row as separate elapsed time. Safe endpoints and actual appliance behavior override the estimate.

Why this works

  • Source permits covering the skillet to melt cheese instead of broiling. Oven is only needed for the broiler route.
  • The primary method melts cheese under a lid on the stovetop. Optional source broiling needs an oven-safe skillet and oven.
