Instructions

Prepare Steaks
    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat your grill until it’s really hot.
  2. Season the steaks with a little salt and pepper.
  3. The meat should be cooked approximately 3-4 minutes per side depending how you like your steaks.When done, slice the steaks into ¼ inch strips, fan out on a warm plate and add your wild mushroom sauce.
Prepare Wild Mushroom Sauce
  1. Melt butter in a sauce pan and sauté shallots until transparent, approximately 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add red wine, preferably something you may be sipping while you are preparing this meal. Don’t use plain old cooking wine, big mistake.
  3. Add mushrooms and cook until tender and wine has reduced to an essence.
  4. Add demi glace and stir (with a whisk if you have one) until combined with the shallots.
  5. Simmer until the sauce has thickened, approximately 8-10 minutes or until it is thick enough to coat a spoon.
  6. Salt and pepper to taste and serve over the steaks (and mashed potatoes if you like).
