Ingredients
  

1 lb bavette steak (flank steak)

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped

1 cup heavy cream

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Steak: Remove the bavette steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.

    Heat the Pan: In a large cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

      Cook the Steak: Carefully place the bavette steak in the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Use tongs to flip the steak and avoid piercing the meat. Once done, remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board, loosely covered with aluminum foil.

        Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic, sautéing for about 1 minute until fragrant.

          Combine the Ingredients: Pour in the heavy cream, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the mixture simmer for about 3-4 minutes until it thickens slightly.

            Add Flavor: Stir in the fresh thyme and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

              Slice the Steak: Once the steak has rested, slice it against the grain into thin strips.

                Serve: Arrange the sliced bavette steak on a serving platter or individual plates. Drizzle the whiskey garlic cream sauce over the steak and garnish with fresh parsley.
