Ribeye Steak with Velvety Garlic Cream Sauce - A Culinary Delight for the Palate 🍽️🧄
Treat your taste buds to a rich and creamy steak experience that you won't forget! Perfect for a cozy dinner at home.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks (8 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions:
1. Begin by patting the steaks dry using a paper towel. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper to elevate the flavors.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the steaks in the skillet and sear them for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Once cooked, remove the steaks from the skillet and allow them to rest.
3. Reduce the heat to medium and add butter to the skillet. After the butter has melted, incorporate the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant.
4. Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, and fresh thyme. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your liking.
5. Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over them. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring the steaks are heated throughout.
6. Serve the steaks immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. This dish pairs beautifully with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
