Notes
Tips for Success
- Choose the Right Cut: Sirloin works well for tenderness and flavor, but ribeye or tenderloin can be used for a more indulgent option.
- Don’t Overcrowd the Pan: Sear the steak in batches if necessary to allow for proper browning.
- Control the Heat: Ensure the skillet is hot when searing the steak, but reduce the heat when making the sauce to prevent curdling.
- Experiment with Add-Ins: Consider adding mushrooms, caramelized onions, or spinach to the sauce for extra texture and flavor.
