Steaks With Roquefort Sauce

This recipe came to me when I was doing a Spanish themed party for a Hemingway book. Everyone LOVED the sauce so much I try to make it all the time. However, if you don't like bleu cheese, I wouldn't try it. I also substitute whiskey for the brandy, or any liquor that isn't sweet.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 2 tablespoons butter

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 4 (5 ounce) beef sirloin steaks

  • salt and coarsely ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 tablespoons brandy

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 3 ounces Roquefort cheese, crumbled

  • Italian flat leaf parsley, for garnish

Directions

  1. Melt the butter and heat the oil in a skillet over high heat. Season steaks with salt and pepper, and quickly sear on both sides. Reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking steaks 5 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness. Remove from skillet and keep warm.

  2. Pour brandy into the skillet and stir to loosen browned bits from bottom. Stir in cream, and return to a boil. Cook and stir until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Mix cheese into the sauce until melted. Pour over the steaks to serve. Garnish steaks with parsley.

These alfajores (also called dulce de leche cookies) are buttery and sweet with a touch of vanilla. They're to die for! Given to me by a chef who sweet-talked the recipe out of a street vendor in Peru.

Chef John's Nashville Hot Chicken

Chef John's Nashville Hot Chicken

If you've never had Nashville Hot Chicken, we're talking about mouthwateringly, ultra-crispy, fiery fried chicken with a cayenne-infused glaze, and by 'glaze' I mean melted butter and lard. For the record, I've never been to Nashville, so I can't tell you how authentic this is, but it works for me. Serve chicken pieces on white bread and brush with extra sauce if you like. Serve with pickles.

Walnut Banana Bread Pudding

My mom has been making this banana bread pudding recipe since I was little. This dessert is a big hit at every barbecue and potluck I bring this to! Sometimes I use pecans instead of walnuts. This is great with coconut, raisins, and dried cranberries, too.
