Ribeye Steaks with Blue Cheese Sauce are a rich, indulgent dish featuring perfectly seared ribeye steaks topped with a creamy, tangy blue cheese sauce. This restaurant-quality meal comes together in under 30 minutes, making it perfect for special occasions or an elevated weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

  • 2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, smashed
  • A few sprigs fresh thyme or rosemary (optional)
  • For the blue cheese sauce:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 small shallot, finely minced
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup crumbled blue cheese
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Let steaks sit at room temperature for 20–30 minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steaks 3–4 minutes per side, until desired doneness.
  3. During last minute of cooking, add butter, garlic, and thyme. Baste steaks with melted butter. Remove and rest for 5 minutes.
  4. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallot and sauté 1–2 minutes until softened.
  5. Stir in cream and bring to a simmer. Add blue cheese and stir until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Spoon warm blue cheese sauce over rested steaks and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use Roquefort for a stronger cheese flavor or Gorgonzola for a milder version.
  • Add a splash of white wine to the sauce for extra depth.
  • If shallots aren’t available, substitute finely chopped onion or garlic.
  • Steaks can also be grilled instead of pan-seared.
