Sizzle and Indulge: Steak with Bourbon Garlic Cream Sauce

Learn how to make delicious Steak with Bourbon Garlic Cream Sauce. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 boneless ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Feel free to substitute with your favorite cut of steak or use half-and-half if you want a lighter sauce. This recipe is all about making it work for you and your pantry.

Instructions

  1. Start by patting the steaks dry with a paper towel, then season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Transfer the steaks to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
  3. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about a minute until fragrant, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  4. Carefully pour in the bourbon, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes to allow the alcohol to cook off.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Let the sauce simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly. Stir occasionally to ensure it doesn’t stick to the pan.
  6. Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them to let the flavors meld for an additional 2 minutes.
  7. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite sides.

Cooking tip: If your sauce isn’t thickening as quickly as you’d like, try letting it simmer a bit longer or adding a touch more cream. Patience is key, and a little extra love never hurts.
