Steak and Chips with Creamy Tarragon Sauce

Tarragon is an herb that is mostly used in French cooking. It has an anise-based flavour so it goes well with chicken and fish. As I can’t be asked to make béarnaise sauce this is my second option during the week as its quick and taste almost as good.

Ingredients

500g Beef Steak
1tsp Onion powder
1tsp Garlic powder
½ tsp Rosemary
Chicken Broth
2 tbsp dried Tarragon
Virgin Oil
1/2 cup of whipping cream

Remove the steak from the fridge; season it with the garlic and onion powder, 2tsp of the dried tarragon, rosemary and small amount of virgin oil. Cover it and leave in room temperature for 30minutes.

I prefer a medium well steak so preheat the grill on medium heat, place the steak on the grill and cook for 15mins.
Increase the heat to medium high for the last 5 minutes. When done, leave the steak in the grill do not remove until ready to serve.
Creamy Tarragon Sauce

In a medium pan heat the chicken broth for 5 minutes.
Add whipping cream, tarragon and salt to taste and mix. Let it simmer for 5 minutes and voila all done.

Serve with Chips, potatoes, mash and vegetables.

Enjoy
