Ingredients
| 1 spray Spray olive oil |
| 1 ounces Crimini mushrooms (sliced) |
| 1/2 small White onions (minced) |
| 2 tsp. Olive oil |
| 2 tsp.. Unsalted butter |
| 1/4 tsp. Salt |
| 1 to taste Black pepper |
| 3 tsp. Fresh thyme |
| 8 ounces Skirt steak (2 4-ounce steaks) |
Instructions
While the oven is preheating spray a medium skillet with olive oil. (The pan should be large enough so that the mushrooms are not crowded.)
Place over medium-high heat and add the mushrooms. Cook the mushrooms tossing occasionally so they begin to brown on all sides. As the mushrooms caramelize add the onion and olive oil. Toss and then add the butter, salt and pepper. Remove from the stove while the steak is cooking.
Spray the hot pan in the oven lightly with olive oil. Place the steaks in and close the oven. Cook on one side for about 6 - 9 minutes depending on how you like your steak. Turn and cook for about half the time (3 - 5 minutes).
After turning the steak add the thyme to the mushroom mixture. Stir well.
When the steak is ready serve over Mashed Yams topped with the sautéed mushrooms.

Recipe Notes
While Kurt Vonnegut is right that we are looking at what we eat pretty carefully now, that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t eat steak.
This is a super simple recipe and just like that steak house dish, full of great grilled beef flavor and savory mushrooms. The addition of the butter may seem a bit unhealthy. While this is a higher fat recipe than I usually create, the butter is the perfect flavor for this dish.
