If you're looking for a good old steak recipe, we've got a great one here for you. There's nothing too special or unique about this recipe, but that's exactly the point. Sometimes, all you need is a traditional recipe to satisfy everyone in your family.
These steaks are served with a creamy topping that will give them extra flavor. If you happen to want something more on the unique side, we do give you the option of also topping the steaks with orange marmalade. We know that sounds a bit odd, but we promise it works!
The side we advise serving with this steak is garlic buttered broccoli. Garlic will help add pleasant flavor to the broccoli, making it easier for you to get your kids to eat it. Broccoli is a common side dish with steak; other options include mac and cheese or mashed potatoes.
