Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 lb steak (any cut you prefer), sliced

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 2 cups beef broth

  • 1 cup heavy cream

  • 1 tsp thyme (optional)

  • 1 cup rice (long-grain or basmati)

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Sear the Steak:

    • Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.

    • Add steak slices and sear for 3–5 minutes until browned to your liking.

    • Remove and set aside.

  • Toast the Walnuts & Garlic:

    • In the same pan, add chopped walnuts and garlic.

    • Cook for 1–2 minutes until walnuts are lightly toasted and garlic is fragrant.

  • Build the Sauce:

    • Stir in honey and pour in beef broth.

    • Simmer for about 5 minutes to reduce slightly and meld flavors.

  • Cook the Rice:

    • Stir in rice to coat with the broth and walnuts.

    • Add heavy cream and thyme (if using). Season with salt and pepper.

    • Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 15–18 minutes, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.

  • Finish the Dish:

    • Stir cooked steak and juices back into the rice.

    • Let it sit for 2–3 minutes to warm through.

    • Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use sirloin, ribeye, or flank steak for best flavor and tenderness.

  • For extra depth, add a splash of soy sauce or a pinch of red chili flakes.

  • Swap walnuts with pecans or almonds if preferred.
