Ever wondered how restaurants make their beef dishes so tender and flavorful? This recipe, inspired by a trick I learned from a chef, will show you how to create a mouth-watering beef dish that rivals your favorite restaurant. Featuring juicy rib-eye steak strips in a rich and creamy gravy, this dish is perfect for a special dinner or a comforting weeknight meal. Let’s get cooking!
Ingredients:
For the Beef:
2 tablespoons olive oil
700g (1.5 lbs) boneless rib-eye steak, trimmed of excess fat
Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Gravy:
3 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped
300g (10 oz) mushrooms, sliced
2 cups (500 ml) beef broth
3 tablespoons flour
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons sour cream
Fresh chives, chopped (optional)
Why This Recipe Works: This recipe combines the natural flavors of rib-eye steak with a rich, creamy gravy. The key is to sear the beef quickly at high heat to lock in the juices, then cook it gently in a savory gravy made with onions, mushrooms, and beef broth. The addition of Dijon mustard and sour cream gives the gravy a tangy depth that perfectly complements the tender beef. By using high-quality ingredients and the right cooking techniques, you can recreate that restaurant-quality taste at home.
