Description
Juicy pan seared ribeye steaks finished in a rich creamy Tuscan sauce made with garlic, parmesan, and sun-dried tomatoes. This restaurant-style steak dinner is easy enough for weeknights but impressive enough for special occasions.
Ingredients
Steak
2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
Creamy Tuscan Sauce
2 tablespoons butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ small onion or shallot, diced
½ cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
½ cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
½ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
-
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper.
-
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
-
Add the steaks and cook for about 3–4 minutes per side until a deep golden crust forms.
-
Add 1 tablespoon butter and spoon the melted butter over the steaks for extra flavor.
-
Remove the steaks from the pan and set aside while you prepare the sauce.
-
Reduce heat to medium and add butter to the same skillet. Add the diced onion and garlic and cook for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
-
Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, chicken broth, and Italian seasoning. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes.
-
Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
-
Stir in the parmesan cheese and cook until the sauce thickens slightly.
-
Return the steaks to the skillet and spoon the sauce over the top.
-
Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the steak is warmed through and coated in the sauce.
-
Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
Let steaks rest at room temperature before cooking for the best sear.
• Use freshly grated parmesan for the smoothest sauce.
• Serve with risotto, pasta, or mashed potatoes to soak up the sauce.
