Garlic Cream Steak & Shrimp
Garlic Cream Steak & Shrimp is a decadent and savory dish that brings together the rich, hearty flavors of tender steak and succulent shrimp,
all enveloped in a luscious garlic cream sauce. The dish begins with perfectly cooked steak—juicy, flavorful,
and seared to perfection to create a caramelized crust that locks in its natural juices. Paired with the steak are plump,
fresh shrimp that are pan-seared or grilled until tender and slightly crisp around the edges, adding a delightful seafood element to the plate.
