Ingredients
  

For the Steak:

  • filet mignon steaks (6 oz each, about 1.5 inches thick)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

For the Gorgonzola Cream Sauce:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 oz Gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare the Steaks:
    Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel. Rub them with olive oil, then season generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
    Preheat the Grill:
    Heat your grill to high (450°F to 500°F). Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.
    Grill the Steaks:
    Place the steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust cooking time for your preferred doneness).
    Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: 130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
    Remove steaks from the grill, cover with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes.
    Prepare the Gorgonzola Cream Sauce:
    In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
    Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Add Gorgonzola cheese, stirring until melted and smooth.
    Season with salt, pepper, and thyme, if using. Reduce heat to low and keep warm.
    Serve:
    Plate the steaks and generously spoon the Gorgonzola cream sauce over the top. Garnish with extra thyme, if desired.

Notes

  • Allow steaks to come to room temperature before grilling for even cooking.
  • For a deeper flavor, marinate the steaks in olive oil, garlic, and herbs for 2 hours before grilling.
