Ingredients
- 1 pound (455 g) steak, 1 1/4 inches(3 cm) thick-Rib eye, sirloin, or T-bone would all be fine.
- 2 tablespoons (28 g) butter, divided
- 2 tablespoons (20 g) minced onion
- 1 cup (240 ml) beef broth
- 1/2 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 1/2 ounces (45 ml) bourbon
- guar or xanthan
- 1 1/2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) oil
Method
- Melt 1 tablespoon (14 g) butter in a medium saucepan and add the onion
- Saute 4 or 5 minutes until its just turning golden
- Add beef broth, bouillon granules, pepper, garlic, and bourbon and let the whole thing boil until its reduced by about half
- Thicken just a little with guar or xanthan-you want it about the texture of heavy cream-right before you serve the steak
- While the sauce is cooking down, sprinkle the pepper evenly over both sides of the steak and press it into the surface
- Put a big, heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add remaining butter and oil
- As soon as the butter and oil are hot, throw in the steak
- Assuming the steak is 1 1/4 inches (3 cm) thick, I think 6 1/2 minutes per side is about right
- Serve with the whiskey
