Crab Stuffed Steak With A Bearnaise Sauce Recipes

SIRLOIN STEAK WITH BEARNAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Season steak on both sides with salt and pepper and refrigerate. Combine wine, vinegar and shallot in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until mixture is reduced to two tablespoons, 15-20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large, heavy, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. When it's hot, add oil and reserved tablespoon of butter. When butter is melted, add steak and sear for one minute. Reduce heat and continue to cook until the first side is golden brown and beginning to crisp, about three minutes longer. Turn the steak with tongs and sear the other side until well-browned, two or three minutes.
• Place pan in oven and finish cooking, turning once, 6-8 minutes for medium-rare. Transfer steak to a platter and loosely cover with foil to keep warm. To finish sauce, put it through a fine strainer, pressing on shallots. Whisk the five tablespoons of cold butter a few pieces at a time into warm reduction until you have a creamy sauce. Stir in tarragon to taste and season with salt and pepper. Slice steak into half-inch thick slices across grain, spoon sauce on top and serve.

SAUCE BEARNAISE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, gently melt the butter, over low heat, and bring to a simmer. As the butter is gently simmering, skim off the froth that accumulates on the surface of the butter. Simmer the butter for about 15 minutes, cool and ladle off the clear butterfat, leaving any milk solids in the bottom of the pan. This is clarified butter! Wow-who knew?
• In a small saute pan combine the vinegar, white wine, peppercorns and shallots. Cook over medium heat until the liquid has almost all evaporated. Remove from the heat, add 1 large ice cube and let it melt. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a medium-sized metal bowl. Add the 3 egg yolks and whisk vigorously to combine.
• Put the metal bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water. Whisk the eggs until fluffy, about 5 minutes. While whisking slowly drizzle in the clarified butter. Start with a couple drops at a time. If the eggs seem to be cooking too quickly, remove the saucepan from the heat. The idea of what is going on here, is that the eggs are being cooked ever so gently into a frothy, foamy deliciousness, not a scrambled curdled mess. Once all of the butter has been whisked in, add the fresh tarragon, and a pinch of cayenne. Season with kosher salt, to taste.
• The sauce should be very full flavored, foamy and delightfully yellow. Serve on a big fat steak and call yourself a superstar!
