Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium-sized, thinly sliced yellow onion
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 0.5 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
In a medium skillet, melt the unsalted butter and olive oil over medium heat.
Add the thinly sliced onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8-10 minutes until the onion becomes golden brown and caramelized.
Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.
Sprinkle the flour over the onions and garlic, stirring to incorporate. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly pour in the beef broth while stirring, scraping up any bits stuck to the bottom of the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Allow the sauce to simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens to a creamy consistency.
Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and fully incorporated.
Spoon the warm, creamy onion mixture over your cooked steak and serve immediately.
