Steak with Parmesan Butter, Balsamic Glaze, and Rocket

This elegant steak with Parmesan butter and balsamic glaze is a sophisticated yet simple dish that brings restaurant-quality flavours to your kitchen. The richness of the rib-eye is perfectly balanced by the sharp, peppery notes of fresh rocket and a bright squeeze of lemon. A homemade compound butter melts into the warm meat, creating a luxurious sauce that complements the tangy balsamic reduction.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this recipe focuses on high-quality protein and fresh greens while keeping carbohydrates low. It is an excellent choice for a quick midweek treat or a healthy weekend dinner. For the best results, ensure your frying pan is nice and hot before searing the steak to achieve a beautifully caramelised crust and a juicy interior.
