Comments
Make extra butter sauce as it is super on just about everything! Also, we often times use NY strip steaks or ribeye steaks instead of sirloin, it is up to you.

The flavor is richer and creamier on the seared steak, making it simply.. awesome!

Have this with cold drinks (Margaritas or Gin and Tonics with lime are especially nice or a cold, cold beer!), a nice salad, and a loaf of crusty sourdough or Italian bread or a French baguette.
