This is a decadent recipe. Sometimes I grill my steaks because our weather is grill ready most of the time....of course sometimes it is 90 + degrees, so I'd rather stay in the air conditioning! The steaks work either way. The sauce is the star here. But quality meat is a must.

  • 1
    Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Cook the steaks in a large skillet over medium heat for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until desired degree of doneness. Remember, they will continue to cook for a bit after you remove them from the heat! Remove the steaks to a serving platter, set aside, and keep warm.
