Steak

Tomato Brandy Cream Sauce

Method

Preparing the Steak

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Rub the ribeye steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned steak and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for at least 5 minutes before slicing.

Making the Tomato Brandy Cream Sauce

  1. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet used for the steak (with the drippings), add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent (about 3-4 minutes).

  2. 5

    Add Tomatoes

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes have softened.

  3. 6

    Incorporate Brandy and Cream

    Carefully add the brandy to the skillet, scraping any brown bits off the bottom. Allow it to cook for 1-2 minutes, then stir in the heavy cream. Simmer for another 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  4. 7

    Finish with Basil

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped fresh basil. Adjust seasoning if necessary.
