Strip Steak and Cream Sauce

 The family sure enjoyed this one, and I enjoyed how simple it was to make!  Winning.  Ha!

• NY strip steak (our family ate 4)
• salt
• olive oil
• pepper
• garlic powder
• smoked paprika
• creole seasoning
• butter
• minced garlic
• fresh herbs, if desired

Sauce

• Butter
• Sweet onion, sliced
• minced garlic
• Heavy cream
• Bourskin garlic and fine herbs cheese
• parmesan cheese

1. Preheat oven to 400.  Heat a cast iron skillet on medium-hi with olive oil.  While pan is heating, season all sides of the steak.  Place in skillet and sear both sides (5-7 mins each side, until a hard sear).  Put sliced butter, garlic, and fresh herbs on top of steak and place in preheated oven.  Cook until the desired doneness.  We like ours medium/medium well, so we cooked it for about 5 minutes.  
2. While steak is in the oven, melt butter in another skillet.  Add remaining ingredients and cook on medium/lo until cheese is melted.  
3. Remove steak from oven when done and slice.  Drizzle with cream sauce.
