Sirloin Steak With Dijon Port Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Generously sprinkle salt and pepper all over steaks, then let steaks rest uncovered for 15 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile, mince the shallots.
• Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add steaks and cook until done to taste, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for rare and a little longer for medium-rare or medium. (Bone-in steaks take a few minutes longer to cook through than boneless.) If the pan begins to smoke or burn, lower the heat. Transfer steaks to a plate to rest while you prepare the sauce.
• Add shallots to the skillet and cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add brandy to the skillet and use a long-handled match or igniter to set the brandy on fire. (Stand back when you do this.) Let flames die out, then add red wine and cook until reduced and syrupy, 2 to 4 minutes. Add stock and boil until reduced and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes longer.
• Remove pan from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the chives. Serve steaks and sauce immediately with watercress.

Steps:

• Sprinkle steaks with salt. Spread 2 tablespoons mustard on each side of each steak. Press 1 teaspoon pepper on each side of each steak. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks and cook to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plate; tent with foil. Add shallots and garlic to skillet; sauté 15 seconds. Stir in broth, cream, then brandy and 1 tablespoon mustard. Boil until thickened, 2 minutes. Spoon over steaks.

Steps:

• Preheat oven on broiler setting. Make foil 'snake' out of aluminum foil to use to keep oven door slightly ajar so that broiler won't turn off if it gets too hot. Brush steak with oil and salt and pepper, to taste. Place a piece of foil on the bottom rack as a drip pan. Place another rack in the position above this and put the steak directly on this rack. Cook steak in this position for 5 minutes. Flip steak and cook for another 5 minutes. Move rack with steak to top position in oven, moving rack with foil and drippings just underneath, and cook for 3 minutes. Flip 1 last time and cook for another 3 minutes. Transfer steak to wire rack and rest for 3 to 5 minutes. The above times are for medium doneness. Adjust cooking times up or down as desired.

Steps:

• Mix salt, pepper and garlic powder together then sprinkle on both sides of the steaks and set steaks aside to sit at room temperature for 5 minutes.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over med/high heat and tilt skillet to coat.
• Sear steaks for 3 minutes on each side for med/rare (go 1 minute longer per side for medium.
• Remove steaks and keep warm.
• Heat remaining oil in skillet and add zucchini, onions and tomato.
• Saute for 3 minutes until veggies start to color slightly, stirring often.
• Add shrimp and cook another 2 minutes until shrimp turns pink.
• Add broth and cream and bring to a boil then turn off the heat and add the cheese, stirring to melt.
• Spoon sauce over the steaks OR slice steaks very thinly and stir back into the veggie sauce mixture then mound on plates.
