SESAME CRUSTED STEAKS WITH BUTTERMILK HORSERADISH SAUCE

Recipe from Robin to the Rescue
A word regarding the steak: don't select a double-cut thick steak for this recipe because the sesame seeds will burn before the steak gets cooked through.

Total Time: 16-20 minutes
Prep time: 5 minutes
Active cooking time: 6-10 minutes
Resting time: 5 minutes
Serves 4

Ingredients

• 4 boneless sirloin steaks
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1/3 cup sesame seeds
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

BUTTERMILK-HORSERADISH SAUCE
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon minced fresh chives
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
 

Directions

1. Season the steaks all over with salt and pepper. Press the sesame seeds into both sides of the steaks.

2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the steaks and cook for 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium doneness. Remove from the heat and let stand for 5 minutes before serving.

3. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, horseradish, mustard, and chives. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Serve the steaks with the sauce spooned over the top.

Make it a meal kit: Prepare the sauce and store it in a sealable container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
