Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) beef tenderloin or sirloin steaks
• 4 ounces Roquefort cheese
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) black pepper
• 2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

Step 1

Take the steaks out of the fridge and allow them to come to room temperature for about 20-30 minutes. Pat them dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the steaks and sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until a golden brown crust forms. Reduce the heat to medium and cook to your desired doneness (e.g., 130°F for medium-rare). Remove the steaks and let them rest on a plate covered loosely with foil.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low and add the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the heavy cream and crumble the Roquefort cheese into the skillet. Stir continuously until the cheese melts and combines into a creamy sauce, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 5

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 6

Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning the Roquefort sauce over them. Let them warm through for 2-3 minutes in the sauce.

Step 7

Transfer the steaks to serving plates, spoon any remaining sauce over the top, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley.

Step 8

Serve hot with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh green salad.
