Asparagus Steak Oscar Recipe

Ingredients for Asparagus Steak Oscar

• 1 cup prepared bearnaise sauce (or make your own)
• Fresh Asparagus
• Fresh Crabmeat
• 1/2 cup chopped garlic
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• Beef Tenderloin Steaks

How to Make Asparagus Steak Oscar

1. Prepare bearnaise sauce according to package directions. (If making from scratch, allow extra time)
2. Snap off the tough ends of 1 pound asparagus. Steam asparagus spears until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
3. In a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped garlic and 1 pound lump crab meat. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, until heated through and garlic is fragrant.
4. Stir in 1 tablespoon lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
5. Season two (8-ounce) steaks generously with salt and pepper. Grill steaks to your desired doneness (approximately 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare).
6. Top each steak with a generous portion of the crab mixture, followed by the steamed asparagus.
7. Spoon a generous amount of bearnaise sauce over the crab and asparagus. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon paprika for a pop of color.
8. Serve immediately and enjoy!
