Steak with Haunted Bourbon Garlic Cream Sauce Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 steaks (ribeye, sirloin, or your choice)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 cup bourbon
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon hot sauce (optional for extra heat)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Prepare the Steaks: Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel and generously season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Cook the Steaks: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for your preferred doneness. Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a plate and cover loosely with foil to rest.
- Sauté the Garlic: In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Add the Bourbon: Carefully pour in the bourbon (watch out for splashes!) and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly. The bourbon adds a rich, smoky flavor to the sauce.
- Make the Cream Sauce: Stir in the heavy cream, butter, and hot sauce if you’re adding extra heat. Let the sauce simmer for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
- Plate and Serve: Pour the creamy bourbon garlic sauce over the steaks and serve immediately. Pair with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Tips for the Perfect Steak and Sauce
- Choose the Right Steak: Ribeye or sirloin works best for this recipe due to their rich flavor and tenderness.
- Don’t Skip the Rest: Resting the steaks after cooking allows the juices to redistribute, making them even more flavorful.
- Control the Heat: Adjust the hot sauce to your liking or leave it out for a milder sauce.
- Deglaze for Extra Flavor: Scrape up any browned bits in the skillet when you add the bourbon; they’ll enhance the sauce’s depth.
