Jessicas Steak Oscar

This is a fabulous recipe that I tried in a steakhouse and re-created the recipe. It is very rich and absolutely divine!

Ingredients :

1. 2 (7 ounce) beef tenderloin steaks
2. salt and ground black pepper to taste
3. ¼ cup butter
4. 1 (6 ounce) can crab, drained
5. 1 pound asparagus, tough ends snapped
6. 1 packet dry Bearnaise sauce mix (such as Knorr)
7. 1 cup whole milk
8. ½ cup butter

Directions :

1. Gather the ingredients.
2. Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Sprinkle the filets with salt and pepper.
3. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt 1/4 cup of butter; gently stir in the crab meat, and simmer while you broil the filets.
4. Broil the filets until they reach the desired stage of doneness; for medium (slightly pink in the center), broil 10 to 12 minutes on the first side and 6 minutes on the second side. Set the filets aside to rest.
5. Place a steamer insert into a skillet, and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover, and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Add the asparagus, recover, and steam until just tender, 2 to 6 minutes depending on thickness.
6. Whisk Bearnaise sauce mix with milk in a saucepan. Add 1/2 cup of butter, and bring the sauce to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly; reduce heat to a simmer, and whisk until sauce has thickened, about 1 minute.
