Ingredients
4 beef steaks (sirloin or ribeye)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Creamy Garlic Sauce:
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
-
Prepare the Steaks: Season the beef steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
-
Sear the Steaks: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for desired doneness. After searing, remove the steaks and let them rest.
-
Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
-
Add the Cream: Lower the heat and pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Serve: Return the steaks to the skillet, spoon the creamy garlic sauce over them, and serve immediately.
Notes
Fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or parsley can be added to the sauce for extra flavor.
For a twist, sauté mushrooms with the garlic for a rich, earthy mushroom sauce.
To make it spicier, add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the cream.
