Notes

Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Rest the steak for at least 5 minutes after cooking to keep it juicy. For a lighter sauce, substitute half-and-half or coconut milk for heavy cream. Store leftovers separately in airtight containers for up to three days. For a gourmet touch, add a splash of brandy or cognac after deglazing the pan.
