Pairs Well With
Ingredients
- 4 sirloin steaks (1 inch thick)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 cup Cabernet Sauvignon
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Side Dish:
- Creamed spinach
- Roasted fingerling potatoes
Preparation
- Season the sirloin steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Sear the steaks for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your preference. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes, covered with foil.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until they release their moisture and turn golden brown.
- Add the Cabernet Sauvignon and beef broth to the skillet, stirring to scrape up any browned bits.
- Simmer the sauce until it reduces and thickens slightly.
- Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the butter until melted and incorporated into the sauce.
- Serve the sirloin steaks with the Cabernet-mushroom sauce, along with creamed spinach and roasted fingerling potatoes on the side.
