🔪 How to Make Keto Steak Sauce

Heat a saucepan to medium and add in the butter. Once melted, add in the shallots.

Sauté for a few minutes or until they just start to caramelize. 

Add in the garlic and sauté for another 15 seconds, making sure not to brown it.

Pour in the white wine and allow it to reduce by half. Add in the heavy cream, fresh thyme, Worcestershire sauce and ground black pepper.

Stir to combine, then add in the blue cheese.

Simmer for a 5-7 minutes, stirring often or until thickened to your liking. 

Serve warm over steak, chicken or pork.

💡 Tips for Making Blue Cheese Sauce

• Control the heat: Keep the heat medium to prevent the cream from curdling. Simmer gently and stir frequently to ensure a smooth texture.

• Reduce the wine: Let the white wine reduce by half before adding the cream. This step intensifies the flavor and helps balance the sauce's richness.

• Crumbled cheese: Crumble the Gorgonzola into small pieces to help it melt evenly and integrate smoothly into the sauce.

• Taste test: Taste the sauce before serving and adjust the seasoning if needed.

• Stir often: Stir the sauce frequently while it simmers to avoid any lumps and ensure your sauce has an even consistency.

☑️ Storage Instructions

Allow the sauce to cool to room temperature before transferring it to an airtight container. Store the sauce in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.

When ready to use, reheat the sauce gently on the stovetop over low heat, stirring frequently. If the sauce thickens too much, you can add a splash of cream or milk to reach the desired consistency.

🍴 Ways to Serve Blue Cheese Sauce

• Steak: Drizzle the sauce over a perfectly cooked grilled or pan-seared steak.

• Chicken: Serve it over grilled or baked chicken for a creamy, flavorful twist.

• Pork: Pair the sauce with pork chops or tenderloin for a tasty twist on a classic dish.

• Roasted vegetables: Use it as a dipping sauce for roasted vegetables or as a creamy topping for a veggie platter. It's delicious with this Air Fryer Asparagus, this Oven Roasted Broccoli and these Roasted Cauliflower Steaks.

• Burgers: Add a generous spoonful to your burgers for a gourmet touch. It's wonderful with these easy Smash Burgers.

• Potatoes: Pour the sauce over air fryer baked potatoes or crispy smashed potatoes for a decadent side dish.

🔄 Substitutions and Additions

• Caramelized onions: Instead of shallots, you can add some caramelized onions for added sweetness and depth.

• Crumbled bacon: Add crispy bacon for a smoky crunch.

• Chopped herbs: Fresh parsley or chives can brighten the sauce with extra flavor.

• Hot sauce: A dash of hot sauce can add a bit of heat if you like your sauce spicy.

• Cheese: Swap Gorgonzola for Roquefort or another blue cheese if you prefer.

• Wine: Substitute the white wine with a splash of chicken or vegetable broth for a non-alcoholic option.

What Can I Do if My Sauce is Too Thick?

Thin the sauce by adding a little more cream or milk while reheating. Stir well to incorporate.

How Can I Prevent the Cream From Curdling When Making this Sauce?

Keep the heat medium and stir the sauce frequently. Avoid boiling and allow it to simmer gently.

Is this Sauce Considered Healthy?

While it’s best when freshly prepared, you can make it in advance and store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Reheat gently before serving.
