Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) Beef steak (sirloin or ribeye)
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Beef stock
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for grilling)
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Pat the beef steaks dry with paper towels and season both sides evenly with salt and ground black pepper.
Rub a light layer of vegetable oil onto each steak to prevent sticking during grilling.
Grill the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium rare, or longer for your preferred level of doneness. Once done, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest under foil for 5-10 minutes.
While the steaks are resting, prepare the sauce. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the flour to the melted butter and whisk continuously to form a smooth paste (roux). Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour the beef stock into the saucepan while whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce is creamy and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Transfer the steaks to serving plates and spoon the creamy brown sauce over each steak generously.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately. Pair with boiled potatoes or steamed vegetables for a complete Norwegian-inspired meal.
