Creating Juicy Steak with Creamy Garlic Sauce is easy when you follow these detailed steps:
1. Prepare the Steaks: Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 15 minutes.
2. Season the Steaks: Generously season both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper.
3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Cook the Steaks: Place the steaks in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, depending on your desired doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (55°C).
5. Rest the Steaks: Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a plate and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.
6. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
7. Add Cream and Mustard: Pour in the heavy cream and stir in the Dijon mustard. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until it thickens slightly.
8. Finish the Sauce: Stir in chopped parsley and, if desired, grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
9. Serve: Slice the rested steaks and place them on plates. Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over the top.
10. Garnish and Enjoy: Garnish with additional parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
By following these straightforward instructions, you’ll produce a juicy, flavorful steak with a creamy garlic sauce that’s bound to impress!
