### **How to Make It**
1. **Season and Sear the Meat**
Generously season both the steak and chicken with salt and pepper. Sear them separately in a hot skillet with olive oil or butter until golden and cooked to your desired doneness. Set aside to rest.
2. **Make the Blue Cheese Sauce**
In the same pan, melt butter and sauté the garlic until fragrant. Add cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the blue cheese and whisk until melted and smooth. Add a splash of white wine or lemon juice for brightness.
3. **Assemble and Serve**
Plate the sliced steak and chicken, then spoon the warm blue cheese sauce generously over the top. Garnish with herbs if desired.

– **Let the meat rest** before slicing—it helps lock in the juices.
– **Use a high-quality blue cheese** for a smoother melt and richer flavor.
– **Don’t overcook the sauce**—blue cheese is best melted gently to keep its complex flavor intact.
– **Make it your own**: Add mushrooms, caramelized onions, or crushed walnuts for extra depth.
