Ingredients:
For the steak:

For the shrimp:
8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tbsp olive oil

For the hollandaise sauce:
3 large egg yolks
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:
Prepare the steak:
Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side or until cooked to your desired doneness.
Add butter to the skillet and baste the steaks with the melted butter. Remove and let rest for 5 minutes.
Cook the shrimp:
Heat olive oil in the same skillet. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Add shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Season with salt and pepper.
Make the hollandaise sauce:
In a heatproof bowl, whisk egg yolks and lemon juice until light and frothy. Place the bowl over a pot of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water).
Gradually whisk in melted butter until the sauce thickens. Stir in cayenne pepper and salt.
Assemble the dish:
Plate the steak and top with the garlic shrimp. Drizzle generously with hollandaise sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color.
