Take the steaks out of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
Season both sides of each steak with salt and black pepper.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, loosely covered with aluminum foil.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the same skillet.
Once the butter is melted, stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are golden and tender.
Pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to deglaze it.
Stir in the heavy cream and fresh thyme leaves, letting the sauce simmer for another 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened.
Place a slice of deli ham on top of each cooked steak, followed by a slice of provolone cheese.
Preheat your broiler and place the steaks on a baking sheet.
Broil the steaks for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
To serve, spoon the mushroom sauce generously over the steaks and garnish with extra thyme if desired.
