A mouthwatering combination of rich brown mushroom sauce and tender strips of peppery steak is a wonderful way to end a busy day. It’s special enough to make for company and ready in less than 30 minutes.
Ingredients
1 beef top sirloin steak (1 pound and 3/4 inch thick)
1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon butter
1-1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup beef broth
1/2 cup dry red wine or additional beef broth
Directions
Rub steak with pepper and salt. In a large skillet, heat butter over medium heat; cook steak until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°), 6-7 minutes per side. Remove from pan; keep warm.
Add mushrooms to pan; cook and stir over medium-high heat until lightly browned. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute. Add broth and wine; bring to a boil, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Cook until liquid is reduced by half. Slice steak; serve with mushroom sauce.
