Creating Juicy Steak with Creamy Garlic Sauce is a straightforward process. Follow these steps for success:
1. Prepare the Steaks: Season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper. Let them sit at room temperature for 15 minutes for even cooking.
2. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
3. Cook the Steaks: Add the steaks to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time to reach desired doneness.
4. Rest the Steaks: Remove the steaks from the skillet and allow them to rest on a plate, loosely covered with aluminum foil for about 5 minutes.
5. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, lower the heat and add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
6. Add Ingredients: Pour in the heavy cream, whisk in the Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Cook until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
7. Season the Sauce: Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if necessary.
8. Plate the Steaks: Slice the rested steaks if desired and place them on plates.
9. Pour the Sauce: Drizzle the creamy garlic sauce generously over the steaks.
10. Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
