Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tbsp salted butter
1 shallot
3 garlic cloves
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tsp (heaping teaspoon) Dijon mustard
1/4 cup blue cheese crumbles
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp sugar
2 tbsp canola oil
2 1-inch ribeye steaks or any other steak of choice
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare all ingredients first: slice shallot thinly, smash and mince garlic, grate Parmesan cheese, and measure blue cheese crumbles, heavy whipping cream, butter, sugar, and Dijon mustard.
  • Melt butter in a preheated cooking pan over medium heat and add shallots and garlic. Saute shallots and garlic until browned and whisk in heavy whipping cream.
  • Whisk in Dijon mustard, sugar, and blue cheese crumbles.
  • Lower heat to medium low and slowly stir until blue cheese is melted and incorporated into the sauce.
  • Stir in freshly grated Parmesan cheese until well incorporated. Take off heat and serve over steaks when ready.
  • About 30 minutes before cooking the steaks, take them out of the refrigerator and out of the package. Let the steaks rest and warm up on the cutting board.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°.
  • Right before cooking the steaks, preheat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add a couple of tablespoons of oil to the pan. Pat the steaks with paper towel on all sides and season with salt and pepper on both sides as well.
  • Sear steaks in the hot pan for about 45 seconds on each side, until there is a a brown sear and transfer the steaks to the preheated oven.
  • Cook until desired temperature is reached. Depending on the thickness and size of the steaks and the desired level of doneness, it could take anywhere from 4 to 10 minutes so you need to keep an eye on the internal temperature and use a meat thermometer. (Having a bone in the steak also affects how long it will need to cook too.)
  • When taking the temperature, insert meat thermometer through the side of the steak, towards the middle.
  • Once steaks reach desired temperature, take them out of the skillet immediately and let the steaks rest for about 5 minutes before cutting. You can let steaks rest on the cutting board or on the plate. (Note: for medium and less cooked steaks, there will be bloody juice running off the steak as it rests, so you may want to let it rest on the cutting board and not on the plate.)
  • Top each steak with cream sauce and serve with your favorite sides.
  • 125°-130° = Rare135°-140° = Medium-rare145°-150° = Medium150°-155° = Medium-well160°-165° = Well(*First number is when to take it out of the oven.)

Categories     main-dish

Time 43m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1-pound New York strip steak (about 1-inch thick)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 large shallot, minced
3/4 cup boxed red wine
2 to 3 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed

Steps:

  • Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper on all sides. Place the steak, standing up on the strip of fat, in the pan and hold it with tongs until the fat renders and the pan is slick, about 2 minutes.
  • Place the steak flat in the pan and sear until deep brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side until a thermometer inserted sideways into the thickest part registers 120 degrees for medium-rare, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Reserve the drippings in the skillet.
  • Add the shallot to the drippings and cook over medium heat until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, about 7 minutes; remove from the heat. Whisk in the butter, one piece at a time, to make a glossy sauce. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper or season to taste. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the sauce.
