Take the steaks out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to allow them to come to room temperature.
Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat until it shimmers. Add the steaks and sear for 3-5 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. For medium rare, cook until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C).
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate covered with foil.
Reduce the heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes until they start to brown.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the red wine, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.
Add the beef stock and thyme sprigs. Continue to simmer for 6-8 minutes, allowing the liquid to thicken and reduce by half.
Stir in the remaining butter and remove the thyme sprigs. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper as needed.
Plate the steaks and spoon the drunken mushrooms with their sauce over the top.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
