Cilantro garlic butter pan sauce for steak

Who doesn't like steak? Especially when they are served along with creamy mushroom sauce, BBQ sauce, red wine sauce... This pan sauce recipe takes only 1 minute to make, so quick that you can make it when the steak is still resting!

This sauce is a classic garlic butter with a little twist. The cilantro will give you that extra kick of freshness. It would be even better if you serve it with some mash potato or french fries!





Preparation time: 1-2 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients:
11/2 tbsp Butter (salted / unsalted)
1 cup Chicken broth (salted)
2 tbsp Minced garlic
2 tbsp Minced cilantro
some salt and pepper

1. Sear the steak and veggies with a skillet in medium high heat. While the steak is cooking, mince the garlic and cilantro.
2. After the steak and veggies are ready, put them on a plate and cover them with aluminium foil to rest.
3. In the same skillet, heated it up with medium low heat. When the skillet is hot, pour in chicken broth and garlic, then quickly before the the broth evaporates, use a wooden spoon to lightly scrap the remaining residue which was stuck on the skillet.
4. After 15-30 seconds, turn off the heat and add in the butter and cilantro. Stir well until the butter is melted. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Serve it with the steak. Enjoy:)

Tips:
1. Be aware of hot steam when pouring broth into the hot skillet.
2. Be careful not to burn the garlic. You just want to brown it not burn it. Turn to low heat if necessary.
