For those that know me well, they know I absolutely love onions. I'm so crazy about them I probably would eat them raw! Ok that might be going a bit to far but I love onions and shallots (also known as french onions) in just about everything. They are essential cooking ingredients and with this steak its no exception. I won't be afraid to cut even 2 shallots for just 1 piece of steak! This dish is just that good with it.
Recipe Instructions
- Buy New York Top Sirloin steak (Safeway does the best with their 'restaurant style' cuts)
- For each sirloin steak make sure you have at least 1 shallot (also known as french onions)
- Peel and chop all shallots
- In a iron black pan at medium heat drop 1/2 tablespoon of butter
- The butter should turn brown and melt very quickly so add the steak to the pan
- Cook the steak on medium-high heat, each side for 2-3 minutes
- Once the steak is cooked, remove quickly, place it on a plate and cover it so it stays warm
- In the iron black pan add another 1/2 tablespoon of butter
- Add several tablespoons of red wine vinegar (or red wine)
- Then toss in the chopped shallots and mix stir them in the pan. Should only take a minute to heat up
- Once step 7-10 is complete (it should only take you a minute or two) toss the shallots on top of the steak along with any natural sauce from the pan and serve
