Instructions

Southwest Steak Rub

  • Place all ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until fully incorporated.

Parmesan-Herb Fries

  • Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees and space fries out on a baking rack on top of a sheet pan; bake for 25 minutes or until golden-brown and crispy.
  • Mean while, in a medium bowl, combine Parmesan cheese, thyme, rosemary, and parsley.
  • Remove fries from oven and toss with Parmesan-herbs.

New York Strip Steaks

  • Season NY strips generously with Southwest steak rub on both sides. 
  • Add grapeseed oil to a cast iron pan and bring to high heat; add steaks to pan and sear 3-4 minutes on both sides for medium-rare doneness. *For more cooking doneness, refer to Omaha Steaks cooking guide.
  • Remove steaks from pan and rest 8 minutes; reserve oil in cast iron pan to build creamy peppercorn pan sauce.

Peppercorn Cream Sauce

  • Add brandy to reserved oil in cast iron pan and reduce to 1/3 in volume, about 1 minute.
  • Add beef stock and reduce by 1/3 in volume, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add heavy cream and cracked pepper corn medley to pan, bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer until thickened.
  • Season to taste if needed with salt and pepper.
  • Top steaks with sauce.
