CHEF JOHN'S STEAK DIANE

Steps:

• Season steaks generously on both sides with salt. Allow steaks to come to room temperature while you make the sauce.
• Stir together demi-glace (see Cook's Note), mustard, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and cayenne pepper in a bowl.
• Heat oil in a skillet over very high heat, swirling carefully to evenly cover surface. When oil reaches a smoking point, transfer steaks to oil; add a few chunks of butter. Sear meat on high heat until brown on each side, 2 to 3 minutes per side; keep them on the rare side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a warm plate.
• Stir shallots into skillet; cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; pour in Cognac. Carefully ignite with a fireplace lighter. When alcohol burns off and flames go out, return skillet to high heat and bring to a boil; cook, stirring, a few minutes to reduce slightly. Add demi-glace mixture, cream, and any accumulated juices from the steak. Cook on high heat just until sauce starts to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer steaks back to pan and reduce heat to low. Gently simmer until meat is heated through and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
• Transfer to hot plates and serve with a generous spoonful or two of sauce. Sprinkle with chives.

NEW-STYLE STEAK DIANE

Steps:

• Let the beef tenderloin filets sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.
• Meanwhile, bring salted water to a boil in a medium saucepan and fill a medium bowl with ice water. Add the bok choy to the boiling water and cook until slightly tender, about 1 minute. Transfer to the ice water until cool, then drain, quarter lengthwise and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and shallots, then sprinkle with salt and pepper and let cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms brown and the shallots begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, coconut yogurt, miso, mustard and sesame oil and stir together. Let cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces by about half, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
• Sprinkle filets on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining tablespoon canola oil in a medium heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and let sear, without moving, until browned, about 2 minutes. Turn the filets over and add the butter, thyme and garlic to the pan. Once the butter melts, begin basting the steaks with the butter until browned on the second side, 2 to 3 minutes more for medium-rare. Remove the steaks from the pan, pour over the pan sauce and let rest.
• Add the bok choy to the same pan and let brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the steak and any accumulated pan juices back in, along with the vinegar. Take the pan off the heat and add the tequila, then tilt the pan into the flame or use a match to carefully ignite the pan. Let the fire subside, then remove the pan from the heat. Divide the bok choy between 2 plates. Top each with a steak, then spoon the mushroom and sauce mixture over both steaks. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

STEAK DIANE

Steps:

• Pairs well with: cabernet
• Add the beef stock to a saucepan and reduce over medium-high heat to 1/2 cup, about 1 hour.
• Sprinkle the steaks on both sides with the salt and pepper. In a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and the olive oil. When the butter has melted and the oil shimmers, add the steaks. Brown the steaks on both sides, 3 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a plate and set aside, lightly covered with foil.
• Add the mushrooms and shallots to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, adding oil if needed. Add the garlic. When the garlic is lightly colored, add the brandy (be careful, it can ignite). Add the wine, mustard, Worcestershire and the reduced beef stock. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes more. Return the steaks to the pan and finish cooking them to the desired temperature, 2 to 4 minutes, depending upon the size of the filets and desired temperature/doneness. For medium-rare, cook to 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the sauce to melt.
• To serve, place a steak on each plate and pour the sauce over the steak.

GORDON RAMSAY'S STEAK DIANE RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Using a rolling pin, roll out the steaks to flatten and cut off any excess fat. Season the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a little olive oil in a skillet pan large enough to accommodate the 4 steaks in one layer. Quickly saute the steaks for up to a minute on each side then remove from the pan and set aside. To make the sauce for the steaks, heat some more olive oil in the pan. Slice the shallots and add to the pan; allow to soften briefly before adding sliced mushrooms with a tablespoon of butter. Crush in the garlic using a garlic press. Add the Worcestershire sauce, then the mustard and heat through for a minute. Turn up the heat and tilt the pan away from you. Pour the brandy into the far end and allow it to ignite. Once the alcohol has burnt off, swirl the juices around the pan. Add the cream and allow the sauce to thicken before turning down the heat. Introduce the steaks back into the pan and cook a little further depending on how well done you would like them. Remove steaks and spoon sauce over them. Sprinkle with parsley. Enjoy!
