Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4. Serving size: 1 steak and 1 cup green salad.

Ingredients

4 individual club steaks, about 1/3 pound each
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup dry red wine
3/4 cup beef stock
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns

Parsley Butter

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon butter

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Trim any fat from the steaks.

    Step 2

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sear the steaks in the hot oil, frying for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

    Step 3

    Remove the steaks to a warm platter and sprinkle with the kosher salt.

    Step 4

    Quickly pour the wine into the hot skillet; let it sizzle and reduce by more than half, about 2 minutes.

    Step 5

    Add the beef stock and continue to boil until reduced to about 1/3 cup. Add the butter and peppercorns, stirring until the butter is melted.

    Step 6

    Remove the peppercorns to a paper towel. Using a mallet or heavy pan, crack the peppercorns and return them to the skillet. Stir well.

    Step 7

    Prepare the parsley butter: In a food processor, blend together the parsley and butter until smooth.

    Step 8

    Spoon the sauce over the steaks and serve with 1 teaspoon of parsley butter each.
