Ingredients
- 2 ribeye steaks (or your favorite cut of steak)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 small shallot, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season steaks with salt and pepper. Once the pan is hot, cook steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove and set aside to rest.
- In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté chopped shallot for 2 minutes until softened.
- Add white wine and scrape up browned bits from the skillet. Let it reduce by half, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in beef broth and cook for another 2 minutes, reducing the sauce.
- Add heavy cream and simmer for 3-4 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Stir in crumbled gorgonzola until melted and creamy.
- Return steaks to the skillet, spoon sauce over them, and heat through for 1-2 minutes.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
Notes
- Steak Options: You can substitute ribeye with filet mignon, New York strip, or sirloin.
- Blue Cheese Options: Feel free to use other blue cheeses like Roquefort or Stilton for a different flavor profile.
- Grilled Option: For extra smoky flavor, grill the steaks instead of pan-searing them.
