  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.

    Separate steak strips into a single layer and pat dry. Cut into 1" pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak Strips and Mushrooms

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil. Add steak strips, white portions of green onions, mushrooms, and a pinch of salt and pepper to hot pan.

    Stir occasionally until mushrooms are tender, no pink remains on steak strips, and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    While steak strips cook, carefully massage grain blend in bag to break up any clumps. Tear a small slit in an upper corner of bag to vent. Place upright in microwave and heat, 45 seconds. Remove from packaging.

  3. 3

    Make the Risotto

    Stir grain blend, 1 cup water, and beef demi-glace into hot pan until combined. Bring to a simmer. Once simmering, cook until liquid has reduced by half, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in garlic salt, cream cheese, butter, sour cream, and a pinch of pepper until combined and creamy. If too thick, add water, 1 Tbsp. at a time, until desired consistency is reached. Taste, and add a pinch of salt, if desired.

    Rest dish, 1-2 minutes.
