For the Sauce

1/4 cup Worcestershire Sauce Adds depth and tanginess; substitute with soy sauce for a different umami flavor.
2 cloves Garlic Provides aromatic richness; use fresh minced or garlic powder for convenient options.
1 cup Beef Stock Forms the savory base of the sauce; can be replaced with half dry red wine for added complexity.
1/2 cup Heavy Cream Contributes creaminess and a silky texture; omit or use cashew cream for a non-dairy alternative.
to taste Black Pepper Enhances flavor with heat; opt for crushed black peppercorns for a bolder taste.
optional Chopped Mushrooms Adds an earthy dimension; sauté until moisture is released before incorporation.
optional tablespoon Grated Ginger Introduces a fresh, spicy note; swap rice vinegar for half the Worcestershire for a unique flavor contrast.

Step-by-Step Instructions

In a medium skillet, combine Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and beef stock over medium heat. Stir gently for about 1 to 2 minutes.

Add freshly cracked black pepper, sautéed mushrooms, or dry red wine for depth. Cook for another minute while stirring.
Remove from heat and serve the sauce hot over prepared steaks.
