Ingredients
  

1 lb bavette steak (flank or flap steak)

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup low-sodium beef broth

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steak: Take the bavette steak out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.

    Heat the Skillet: In a large cast-iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

      Cook the Steak: Add the seasoned bavette steak to the skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Once cooked, transfer the steak to a plate and cover it with aluminum foil to rest.

        Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium, then add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Be careful not to burn it.

          Add Cream and Broth: Pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Stir in the heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, and smoked paprika. Allow to simmer for about 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce slightly thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Slice and Serve: Once the steak has rested, slice it against the grain into thin strips. Plate the slices and drizzle the whiskey garlic cream sauce generously over the top.

              Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and freshness.

                  Presentation Tips: Serve the steak on a warm plate, with extra sauce on the side. Pair it with roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal. Add a few sprigs of parsley on the side for a beautiful touch!
