I love a good steak sprinkled with blue cheese and stuck under the broiler so it melts down into the meat. Oh gosh. Do you love blue cheese too? Do you love parsley and butter? I hope so.
Because I am writing about a parsley blue cheese butter that is so insanely good on steak. It melts and spreads it's goodness over the steak while your mouth waters. Then you take a bite and it's so warm and flavorful.
Also, please ignore the gross fat on the steak pictures. This is real life, people. This particular steak was Michael's and he cut the fat off before eating it, so don't worry.
My inspiration for this came from my first "official" date with Michael. I was still living 4 hours north of him in New Jersey. We met in the middle near the King of Prussia, PA mall to go to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Fancy fancy. I also got tulips and a long hug... because it took Michael 6 weeks to kiss me. Worth the wait.
Anyway, they are famous for their steaks. We both had a filet that was perfectly cooked, tender and flavorful. I asked the waitress how they season their steaks because I wonder about things like that. If I hadn't asked, I would have been wondering about it for the last year. You understand.
Turns out they season their steaks with salt, pepper, parsley and butter. Simple as that. A place so famous for steak lets the real meat flavor shine through with very simple seasoning.
First things first: gotta cook the steaks.
I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out the best way to cook a steak. Is that weird? I found the best way to cook it indoors is to get a screaming hot oven-safe skillet, sear each side of the steak for 2-3 minutes, then pop the pan in the oven to let it finish cooking. I also love steaks cooked on our outdoor grill.
I used sirloin for this meal, so they are not too thick. I put my skillet up high and cooked the steaks for about 7-8 minutes on each side. No oven time. It turned out beautifully!
When the steaks are done cooking, let them rest. Let them calm down from being all hot and bothered. While this is happening, chop up some parsley.
Mix the parsley and blue cheese in softened butter.
Plop some butter on each of the steaks and watch as it seeps down into the little cracks. Get excited.
Enjoy it!

It all presented with a wink nothing heavy spirited or assaultive about this Ghostbusters. Feig, who co wrote the script with Katie Dippold (The Heat), has clearly taken great care with the movie tone as delicately balanced as the wings of a Coach Outlet Online Store Cheap Ray Ban Sunglasses spectral butterfly. He honors the spirit of the original: Bill New Jordan Shoes 2020 Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson and Annie Potts all have cameos, and a gleaming bronze bust of the late Harold Nike Air Force 1 Cheap Outlet Ramis graces the hallowed halls of Columbia University, where part of that Ghostbusters, like this one, takes place.
