Ingredients

For the Steaks:

  • 4 beef steaks (sirloin or striploin)
  • 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
  • 1/4 cup beef or chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions

1. Prepare the Steaks

  1. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for 3–5 minutes per side (depending on thickness) until your desired doneness.
  4. Remove steaks from skillet and set aside to rest for 5 minutes.

2. Make the Creamy Garlic Sauce

  1. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  2. Add heavy cream, beef or chicken broth, Dijon mustard, and dried thyme. Stir to combine.
  3. Simmer the sauce for 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened.

3. Serve

  1. Place the steaks on plates and pour the creamy garlic sauce over them.
  2. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley if desired.
  3. Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a side salad.

Tips for Perfect Steak

  • Let steaks reach room temperature before cooking for even searing.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan — cook steaks in batches if needed.
  • Use a meat thermometer: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
  • Rest steaks after cooking to lock in juices.

Variations

  • Add mushrooms to the sauce for an earthy twist.
  • Use white wine instead of broth for deeper flavor.
  • Swap thyme with rosemary for a fragrant alternative.

Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with garlic mashed potatoes or buttery rice.
  • Serve alongside roasted asparagus or green beans.
  • Perfect for a romantic dinner or family meal!
