Steak with wild mushroom sauce

Recipes » Main Dish » Meat - Steaks and Chops

1.Make sure the grill is hot, really hot. This will sear the outside of the meat and keep the juices in.

2.Don’t use a fork to turn the steaks, use tongs or a spatula to prevent juices from leaking out.

3.If you are using a broiler, you want to preheat it to get it hot for the same reason as above.

4."Remember, never cook with any wine you wouldn't drink"

Steak with wild mushroom sauce Preparation

PREP WORK Get your grill really hot. While that is happening, finely chop your shallots and slice your mushrooms. Have your red wine and demi glace or substitute ready to go

Prepare Steaks:

Preheat your grill until it’s really hot. Season the steaks with a little salt and pepper. The meat should be cooked approximately 3-4 minutes per side depending how you like your steaks. When done, slice the steaks into 1/4 inch strips, fan out on a warm plate and add your wild mushroom sauce.

Prepare Wild Mushroom Sauce:

Demi-Glace Gold comes with easy instructions, but here’s how I make it. Melt butter in a sauce pan and sauté shallots until transparent, approximately 2-3 minutes. Add red wine, preferably something you may be sipping while you are preparing this meal. Don’t use plain old cooking wine, big mistake.

Add mushrooms and cook until tender and wine has reduced to an essence. Add Demi-Glace Gold and stir (with a whisk if you have one) until dissolved. Add hot water and simmer until the sauce has thickened, approximately 8-10 minutes.

Salt and pepper to taste and serve over the steaks (and mashed potatoes).
