1. Prepare the Steak and Shrimp:
o Season the steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.
o Season the shrimp lightly with salt and pepper.
2. Cook the Steaks:
o In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate, loosely covered with foil.
3. Cook the Shrimp:
o In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil. Add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Make the Creamy Lemon Garlic Butter Sauce:
o In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
o Stir in the heavy cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest, bringing the mixture to a simmer.
o Add the Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, stirring until the sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
5. Combine and Serve:
o Slice the rested steaks and return them to the skillet with the cooked shrimp, spooning the creamy lemon garlic butter sauce over the top.
o Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and lemon slices for a bright finish.
