Here’s a sumptuous recipe for Steak with Shrimp & Lobster Sauce:
Ingredients:
For the Steak:
- 2 ribeye steaks or your preferred cut (about 1 inch thick)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp butter
For the Shrimp & Lobster Sauce:
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- ½ cup dry white wine (optional, or use chicken broth)
- 1 cup lobster stock (or chicken broth)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup cooked lobster meat, chopped
- ½ cup cooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Steak:
- Season the Steak:
Season both sides of the steaks with salt and pepper. - Cook the Steak:
Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the steaks and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness (medium-rare to medium is recommended). Remove from the skillet and let the steaks rest on a plate, covered loosely with foil.
Make the Shrimp & Lobster Sauce:
- Sauté Onions and Garlic:
In the same skillet used for the steaks, add 2 tbsp of butter. Sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute. - Deglaze the Pan:
If using, pour in the white wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it reduce for 2-3 minutes. - Prepare the Sauce:
Add the lobster stock (or chicken broth) and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. - Add Seafood and Seasonings:
Stir in the chopped lobster meat and shrimp. Add paprika, dried thyme, and lemon juice. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the shrimp are heated through and the lobster meat is warmed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve:
- Slice and Plate:
Slice the rested steaks against the grain. Arrange the steak slices on serving plates. - Top with Sauce:
Spoon the shrimp and lobster sauce over the steak. - Garnish:
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve:
Serve your Steak with Shrimp & Lobster Sauce with your favorite side dishes, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a crisp salad.
