Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Season beef with blackened seasoning to coat on all sides. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Heat oil in a cast iron skillet on the preheated grill until oil is smoking. (3 minutes)

04

Step

Cook beef in hot oil in small batches, reheating oil between batches, until slightly crusty, 1 to 2 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness. (10-15 minutes)

05

Step

Remove beef to a serving plate.

06

Step

Make sauce: Stir together cream cheese and evaporated milk in a saucepan over low heat until cream cheese is melted. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Whisk in blue cheese crumbles, garlic powder, white pepper, and cayenne pepper; simmer, stirring frequently, until sauce is smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. (3 minutes)

08

Step

Serve blue cheese sauce with beef.

For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the steak bites over charcoal instead of gas.
If you don't have a grill, a cast iron skillet on the stovetop works perfectly well. Be sure to ventilate your kitchen!
Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. For a milder sauce, omit it entirely.
Béarnaise sauce offers a delightful alternative if blue cheese isn't to your taste.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese in the sauce. Gorgonzola or Roquefort would also be delicious.

    The blackened seasoning gives the steak such a great flavor. I used a little less cayenne pepper, and it was perfect for my family.
