Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 ribeye or sirloin steaks about 1 inch thick, serving 2
  • 1 pound shrimp peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Fresh parsley for garnish
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. 1. Season the Steaks
  2. Generously season your steaks with salt and pepper. Rub a tablespoon of Cajun seasoning on each side.
2. Cook the Steaks
  1. In a skillet over high heat, melt a tablespoon of butter. Sear your steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness (adjust time based on thickness and desired doneness). Once cooked, remove from the pan and let them rest.
3. Cook the Shrimp
  1. In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds, then toss in the shrimp. Sprinkle with the remaining Cajun seasoning and cook until pink and opaque, around 3-4 minutes.
4. Make the Sauce
  1. Lower the heat, then pour in the heavy cream and stir it all together. Add the grated Parmesan and let it simmer until slightly thickened, around 3 minutes.
5. Combine and Serve
  1. Slice the steaks and plate them with the shrimp sauce poured over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately and enjoy!
