Ingredients
- 12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 ribeye steaks or your favorite cut
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Chopped parsley for garnish
Directions
-
Start by seasoning the ribeye steaks. Rub them with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. This will help enhance the flavor.
-
Preheat your grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks. Sear them for about 3-4 minutes on each side. When they are cooked to your liking, take them off the heat and let them rest for a few minutes.
-
In the same pan, add the shrimp. Cook them for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink. When done, remove the shrimp from the pan and set them aside.
-
Now, melt the unsalted butter in the pan. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté it until it becomes fragrant. This will give the sauce a wonderful flavor.
-
Pour in the heavy cream and whisk in the grated Parmesan and Dijon mustard. Let the mixture simmer until it thickens. Don’t forget to season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
To serve, place the rested steaks on plates, top with the cooked shrimp, and drizzle the creamy garlic sauce over everything. Finish with a sprinkle of chopped parsley for a fresh touch.
Tips to Make Steak and Shrimp with Creamy Garlic Sauce
