Steak Tips With Red Wine Butter Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Pat steak tips dry with paper towels and season with salt & pepper. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add steak tips and cook until well browned all over and meat registers 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to plate and tent loosely with foil.
• Add 1 TBL butter to now-empty skillet and melt over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, about 2 mintues. Add wine and sugar and simmer until nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add broth and any accumulated steak juice from plate and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup, about 3 minutes.
• Off heat, whisk in remaining 3 TBL butter and thyme. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Return steak tips to skillet and toss with sauce.

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:

• Pat steak tips dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add steak tips and cook until well browned all over and meat registers 125° (for medium-rare), 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to plate and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Add 1 tablespoon butter to now-empty skillet and melt over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes. Add wine and sugar and simmer until nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add broth and any accumulated steak juice from plate and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup, about 3 minutes. Off heat, whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons butter and thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Return steak tips to skillet and toss with sauce. Serve.

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat; cook and stir the yellow and red onion, shallots, garlic, tomato, carrots, and mushrooms until the onions are translucent and the carrots have softened, 10 to 15 minutes. Pour in the beef broth and 1 cup of Merlot, and bring to a boil, scraping and dissolving any browned bits of flavor from the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat, and simmer until the vegetables are very soft and the pan juices have reduced by half, about 20 minutes.
• Strain out and discard the vegetables from the sauce. Return the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat, stir in 1/4 cup of Merlot wine, and reduce heat. Simmer the sauce until it is reduced to 1/4 of its original volume, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• For the red wine-rosemary butter: Place the wine and the rosemary sprig in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the wine has reduced to a syrup and measures approximately 2 tablespoons, about 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before removing and discarding the rosemary sprig. Place the butter, the chopped rosemary and the salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the wine syrup and process until fully integrated, about 1 minute. Set aside.
• For the strip steak: Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, rosemary, salt and garlic, and rub the mixture all over the steaks. Place the steaks on the grill and sear for 4 minutes without moving to form a golden brown crust. Flip the steaks and sear on the reverse side until crusty on the outside and medium-rare at the center, another 3 minutes. Remove the steaks to a plate and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, drizzle about 1 teaspoon olive oil over the lemon halves and place them, cut side down, on the grill. Grill until charred and fragrant, 3 minutes.
• To serve: Transfer each steak to a plate and top with a dollop of red wine butter and a squeeze of the charred lemon.

Steps:

• Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper on all sides. Place the steak, standing up on the strip of fat, in the pan and hold it with tongs until the fat renders and the pan is slick, about 2 minutes.
• Place the steak flat in the pan and sear until deep brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side until a thermometer inserted sideways into the thickest part registers 120 degrees for medium-rare, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Reserve the drippings in the skillet.
• Add the shallot to the drippings and cook over medium heat until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, about 7 minutes; remove from the heat. Whisk in the butter, one piece at a time, to make a glossy sauce. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper or season to taste. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the sauce.
