Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces ribeye steaks (1-inch thick)
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces toothpicks
Instructions
Lay the steaks flat on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut a horizontal pocket into the side of each steak without cutting all the way through.
Season the steaks inside and out with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and sauté for 3 minutes or until softened.
Add the minced garlic and fresh spinach to the skillet. Cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted.
Transfer the spinach mixture to a bowl. Let it cool slightly, then mix in the cream cheese and shredded mozzarella.
Stuff each steak pocket with the spinach and cheese mixture, dividing it evenly among the steaks.
Secure the opening of each steak with 2 toothpicks to keep the filling inside while cooking.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the stuffed steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, creating a golden-brown crust.
Reduce the heat to medium and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the steaks reach your desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
Remove the steaks from the pan and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving. Carefully remove the toothpicks.
Serve the stuffed steaks warm with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
