To make Bonefish Grill’s Steak Gorgonzola at home, you’ll need ¹:

• 1.5-2 pounds steak (filet mignon or ribeye work well)
• 1/4 cup gorgonzola cheese, crumbled
• 1/4 cup balsamic glaze (or reduced balsamic vinegar)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh spinach leaves for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare: Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Season steak with salt, pepper, and thyme.

3. Gorgonzola Butter: Mix gorgonzola cheese and butter. Place sliced gorgonzola butter on top of each steak and broil until cheese gets melted and bubbly.
4. Serve: Serve steak with a drizzle of balsamic glaze and garnish with fresh spinach leaves.

Tips

• Use high-quality ingredients, like fresh thyme and good-quality gorgonzola cheese.
• Adjust the amount of gorgonzola sauce to your taste.
• Serve with roasted vegetables or a side salad for a complete meal ².
