Season both sides of the steaks with kosher salt and black pepper. Let them rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once hot, sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your desired doneness.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate tented with foil.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the unsalted butter.
Once the butter is melted, add the finely chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced cremini mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes until they are browned and tender.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the mushrooms and stir well to coat, cooking for 1 minute.
Gradually pour in the beef broth while stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Stir in the heavy cream and let the sauce simmer for an additional 2 minutes for a rich, creamy texture.
Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning some of the mushroom sauce over them, and cook for 1 minute to reheat.
Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
