Ingredients
  

2 ribeye steaks (about 1 inch thick)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup low-sodium beef broth

2 tablespoons bourbon-flavored extract (non-alcoholic)

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steaks: Take the ribeye steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

    Sear the Steaks: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. Remove the steaks and let them rest on a plate, tented with foil to keep warm.

      Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn it.

        Add Liquid Ingredients: Pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits. Stir in the heavy cream, bourbon-flavored extract, Worcestershire sauce, and smoked paprika. Bring it to a gentle simmer.

          Thicken the Sauce: Continuously stir the sauce for about 5-7 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

            Serve: Slice the steaks against the grain for optimal tenderness. Plate the steaks and generously drizzle with the haunted bourbon garlic cream sauce.

              Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley for an added touch of color and flavor.

                  - Presentation Tips: Serve the steaks on warm plates with a side of creamy mashed potatoes and seasonal grilled vegetables. Drizzle extra sauce around the plate for a restaurant-style look. Garnish with a sprig of parsley on top of the sauce for added flair.
