Blackened Steaks and Horseradish Cream
Ingredients
olive oil cooking spray
1 1/2 lb grilling steaks (such as ribeye, top sirloin, or strip)
2 tablespoons blackening seasoning
4 ounces whipped cream cheese spread
1/4 cup half-and-half
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
Steps
1. Coat grill rack with cooking spray; preheat grill.
2. Cut steak into four portions, if desired. Season both sides of steaks with blackening seasoning. Place steaks on grill (wash hands); close lid (or cover loosely with foil). Grill 4–6 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 145°F (for medium-rare). Use a meat thermometer to accurately ensure desired doneness. (Grills vary widely; adjust time as needed.)
3. Meanwhile, whisk remaining ingredients, in small bowl, until blended and smooth. Serve horseradish cream with steaks.
