Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat beef dry. If cutlets are thick, pound them between plastic wrap to 1/4-inch thickness. Season generously with salt and pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Sear beef 60–90 seconds per side without moving. Transfer to a plate.

  4. Step 4

    Add mushrooms and garlic to the same skillet. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms release moisture and edges brown, ~4 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Pour in wine, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer until liquid reduces by half, about 2 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Return beef to the pan. Squeeze lemon juice over the top, scatter parsley, and serve hot straight from the skillet.
