Steak Crostini with Leek Cream Sauce
- 1 pound Steak (cooked)
- 8 pieces Italian Bread, Sliced
- 2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 6 ounces, weight Fontina Cheese
- 4 Tablespoons Butter
- 1 stalk Leek, Thinly Sliced
- 2 Tablespoons Flour
- 1 cup Light Cream
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Black Pepper
- Cut steak into bite size pieces or strips and heat up (I had leftovers, but you could pan sear one if you dont have any leftovers).
- Drizzle both sides of Italian bread slices with olive oil; you can spread a little butter on both sides also if you like.
- Toast each side for approximately 2-3 minutes over medium heat in a grill pan.
- Layer steak on top of toasted bread and keep warm in the oven or warming drawer.
- Cream Leek Sauce:
- Melt the butter over medium heat.
- Thinly slice leek and add to melted butter, cook for approximately 2 minutes.
- Remove from heat and whisk in the flour.
- Put back on low heat and slowly add cream, constantly whisking.
- Be sure not to let the mixture boil.
- You can thin sauce by adding more cream if desired.
- Remove from heat and whisk in salt and pepper to taste.
- Spoon cream sauce over top of meat and then grate fontina cheese onto top.
- This is a great recipe to experiment with.
- I have done an herbed cream sauce, and used different types of cheese grated on top.
- Have fun with it!
