Ingredients
- For the Steaks:
- 2 ribeye steaks (or your preferred cut)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 2 tbsp butter
- For the Garlic Cream Sauce:
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup beef broth
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
Season the Steaks
Start by seasoning your steaks with salt and pepper on both sides, ensuring an even coating.
Melt the Butter and Cook the Steaks
In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Once the butter is sizzling, place the seasoned steaks in the skillet. Cook the steaks to your desired level of doneness, about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on the thickness. Once cooked, set them aside on a plate to rest.
Sauté the Garlic
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 1 minute or until it becomes fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Deglaze the Pan
Pour in ½ cup of beef broth, stirring well to deglaze the pan. Scrape the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to lift any flavorful browned bits.
Add the Cream and Seasonings
Add 1 cup of heavy cream, 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard, and 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce to the skillet. Stir the mixture thoroughly to combine.
Simmer the Sauce
Let the sauce simmer over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired thickness, about 5-7 minutes.
Serve the Steaks
Plate the rested steaks and generously drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
