Crab and Blue Cheese Steak Topper
This is a wonderful topping for steak if not a little sinful, I used fillet cuts, I know these are quite expensive now days but I figured why not have a treat. I also topped my steak with a jumbo prawn to make for a truly self indulgent surf and turf dinner. This would make for a fabulous dinner party meal sure to impress any guest and the great thing is it is not had nor time consuming to prepare.

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons olive oil
1lb Crabmeat (lump is best)
1 Teaspoon minced garlic
1 Teaspoon chopped onion
5 1/4 Ounces boursin cheese
1 Cup half-and-half cream
2 Tablespoons parmesan cheese
1/4 Cup blue cheese, crumbles
Pepper

Method

1. Heat saute pan to med-high. Add garlic and onions and cook for approx 1 minute.

2. Add crabmeat and cook for approx another minute (until heated through).

3. Add the Boursin cheese and melt slowly. Once melted, add the half and half and simmer on med-low until liquid is reduced to a creamy sauce (2-4 minutes).

4. Add the parmesan cheese and blue cheese. It will thicken nicely.

5. Season with pepper as you like.

Pour over steaks and serve.

It is also wonderful on asparagus.
