Ingredients
- 2 steaks roughly 1½ lbs, any cut you like
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp pepper
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
- ½ lb baby potatoes halved
- ½ shallot minced
- 1 tsp fresh thyme
- ½ cup beef broth
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Pat the steak dry and season with spices on each side.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and sear the steaks for 3-5 minutes on each side, or until the desired done-ness is reached. Be sure to use an instant-read meat thermometer. I recommend you remove the steak from the pan when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. Remove them from the pan and tent with foil.
- Add butter to the pan, then add the halved potatoes and saute them until they’re fork tender. This should take about 10-12 minutes. Remove them from the pan.
- Add the minced shallot to the pan, no need to clean it. Saute for 2-3 minutes.
- Then add the thyme, give it a stir.
- Next deglaze the pan with the beef broth, allow it to bubble and scrape up the brown bits. Then whisk in the dijon mustard until it’s completely smooth.
- Turn the heat down to low and whisk in the heavy cream.
- Return the steak and potatoes to the pan. Serve!
Notes
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
Reheating: To reheat, if you want this to taste as good as new, I recommend warming a pan over low heat and adding a splash of beef broth and the leftovers (with the sauce). Cover it and heat it until it’s warmed through.
