Description
A rich and creamy bourbon-infused garlic sauce that elevates tender ribeye steaks, perfect for a weeknight treat or special dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ribeye steaks
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup bourbon
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the steaks generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for 10 minutes while you gather ingredients. Mince the garlic and measure the bourbon, cream, and mustard.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the steaks and cook for about 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to reach your desired doneness. Use tongs to turn once for a good crust.
- Remove the steaks from the skillet and set them on a plate to rest for 5–7 minutes. In the same hot skillet, lower heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic for about 30–45 seconds until fragrant and lightly golden, scraping up browned bits from the pan.
- Carefully add 1/2 cup bourbon to the skillet and let it simmer for 2–3 minutes to reduce slightly. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Simmer gently until the sauce thickens, about 3–5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve the steaks topped with the sauce and garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
Serve with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. Adjust the thickness of the sauce with warm broth if needed.
