Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 inches thick New York strip steak (about 1-pound)
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed
  • 2 sprigs rosemary or thyme
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup gorgonzola, crumbled
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Pat the New York strip steak dry using a paper towel.
  2. Generously season both sides with salt and freshly ground pepper.
  3. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until it becomes smoking hot.
  4. Add the vegetable oil and swirl it around to coat the pan evenly.
  5. Place the steak in the skillet without moving it for the first 30 seconds.
  6. Flip the steak frequently using tongs until both sides are browned and internal temperature reaches 145°F for medium-rare (about 8 minutes).
  7. When the steak is near completion, add butter, smashed garlic cloves, and fresh herbs to the skillet.
  8. Baste the steak with the herbs as the butter melts.
  9. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for at least 2 minutes before slicing against the grain.
  10. Bring the heavy cream to a simmer in a separate saucepan over medium heat.
  11. Stir in the crumbled gorgonzola cheese, whisking until melted and smooth.
  12. Season with freshly ground pepper for added flavor.
  13. Serve the sliced steak topped with gorgonzola cream sauce and garnish with chopped parsley.

Notes

Ensure the skillet is hot enough before adding the steak for a perfect sear. Let the steak rest after cooking to maintain juiciness.
