Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon butter
½ cup minced white onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
¾ cup low-sodium beef broth
½ cup port wine
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 filet mignon steaks (1 1/2 inch thick)
¾ cup crumbled blue cheese
¼ cup panko bread crumbs

Stir in the beef broth, scraping any onion bits from the bottom of the pan, then stir in the port wine. Bring to a boil, and cook until the mixture has reduced to about 1/2 cup. Set aside. This may also be made ahead of time, and reheated.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat oil in a cast-iron or other oven-safe skillet over high heat. Sear steaks quickly on both sides until brown, then place the whole pan into the oven.

You may adjust this time to allow the steaks to finish just below your desired degree of doneness if medium is not what you prefer. Remove from the oven, and place on a baking sheet. Stir together the panko crumbs and blue cheese. Top each steak with a layer of this mixture.
  • Preheat the oven's broiler. Place steaks under the preheated broiler until the cheese topping is browned and bubbly. 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let stand for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve with warm port wine sauce.

PAN-SEARED STEAK WITH RED WINE SAUCE



Pan-Seared Steak With Red Wine Sauce image

You can use any cut of steak, either bone-in or boneless, to make this classic French bistro dish. Steaks cut from the tenderloin, such as filet mignon, are the most tender pieces of beef, though they lack the assertively beefy chew of sirloins and rib steaks. Adding brandy to the pan sauce not only contributes flavor; its high alcohol content and acidity help extract flavor from the pan drippings. However, if setting it on fire makes you nervous, skip that step and let the brandy simmer down for an extra few minutes to cook off most of the alcohol. Make sure to open a good bottle of red wine to use in the sauce here, preferably one that you're happy to finish off with dinner. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Categories     dinner, steaks and chops, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt, as needed
Freshly ground black pepper, as needed
1 1/2 pounds boneless steak, or 1 3/4 pounds bone-in steak (1 1/2 inches thick)
2 shallots
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon neutral oil, such as grapeseed
2 tablespoons good brandy, preferably Cognac
1/3 cup dry red wine
1/3 cup beef or chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 tablespoon chopped chives
Watercress, for serving

Steps:

  • Generously sprinkle salt and pepper all over steaks, then let steaks rest uncovered for 15 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile, mince the shallots.
  • Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add steaks and cook until done to taste, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for rare and a little longer for medium-rare or medium. (Bone-in steaks take a few minutes longer to cook through than boneless.) If the pan begins to smoke or burn, lower the heat. Transfer steaks to a plate to rest while you prepare the sauce.
  • Add shallots to the skillet and cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add brandy to the skillet and use a long-handled match or igniter to set the brandy on fire. (Stand back when you do this.) Let flames die out, then add red wine and cook until reduced and syrupy, 2 to 4 minutes. Add stock and boil until reduced and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes longer.
  • Remove pan from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the chives. Serve steaks and sauce immediately with watercress.

STEAK WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE



Steak With Blue Cheese Sauce image

Very assertively-flavored steak recipe that I learned about 12 years ago when I was learning to cook to impress my now-husband. Adapted from Betty Crocker's New International Cookbook. This Spanish-influenced recipe can tend to be somewhat on the salty side, so be careful to use unsalted butter to saute the steaks, and a good-quality, not-overly-salty blue cheese in the sauce. Serve simply, with a lightly-dressed salad, good crusty bread, and a nice red wine.

GRILLED BONE-IN RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH BLUE CHEESE



Grilled Bone-In Rib-Eye Steaks With Blue Cheese image

The usual formula for cooking an amazing slab of steak is as simple as they come: salt plus pepper plus a short stint over a hot fire. But there are times when you want an extra shot of flavor. Some good crumbled blue cheese sprinkled on the hot steak so it melts over the top does just that, especially when you spike it with hot sauce and butter. I like to use a combination of direct and indirect heat when grilling a bone-in piece of meat; it allows a crust to form but not burn while keeping the meat juicy inside. But you know your grill best, so let your instinct guide you as to where to move the steaks and when you think they are done. And if blue cheese isn't your thing, follow the grilling directions here but leave your meat bare except for the salt and pepper. If you start with good meat, you will never go wrong.

Categories     dinner, steaks and chops, main course

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (1 1/2-inch-thick) bone-in rib-eye steaks, about 1 1/4 pounds each
2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
Black pepper, as needed
Extra-virgin olive oil, as needed
2 ounces creamy blue cheese, such as Jasper Hill Bayley Hazen Blue
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 teaspoons finely chopped chives
Hot sauce, as needed

Steps:

  • Season steaks with salt and pepper at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour before you plan to cook them. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature.
  • Heat grill to high. If using a charcoal grill, mound coals to one side, allowing for an area of indirect heat. If using a gas grill, turn on only a few of the burners and leave the rest off for indirect heat.
  • Lightly oil steaks. Place on the hottest part of the grill. Cook, covered, until they develop a golden-brown crust, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move steaks to indirect heat and crumble cheese over the top; cover and continue cooking 2 to 5 minutes longer, depending on desired doneness. (Pull the meat at 125 degrees for rare.)
  • Transfer steaks to a cutting board to rest, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes. While steaks rest, stir together butter, chives and hot sauce. Pour over steak before serving.

BLUE-CHEESE-CRUSTED STEAKS WITH RED WINE SAUCE (4.5 STARS)



BLUE-CHEESE-CRUSTED STEAKS WITH RED WINE SAUCE (4.5 STARS) image

Categories     Beef     Fry

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) chilled butter
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 large shallot, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
3/4 cup low-salt beef broth
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/2 cup coarsely crumbled Maytag blue cheese (about 2 ounces)
1/4 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)*
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
4 1-inch-thick filet mignon steaks (each 6 to 8 ounces)

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, shallot, and thyme. Sauté until shallot is tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth and wine. Boil until sauce is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 12 minutes. Set sauce aside. Blend cheese, panko, and parsley in small bowl to coat cheese evenly with panko. (Sauce and cheese mixture can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.) Preheat broiler. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Add steaks to skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to rimmed baking sheet; reserve skillet. Press cheese mixture onto top of steaks, dividing equally. Broil until cheese browns, about 2 minutes. Transfer steaks to plates. Pour sauce into reserved skillet. Bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Boil 2 minutes. Whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce around steaks and serve. *Available at Asian markets and in the Asian section of some supermarkets.

Tips:

  • Select high-quality steaks: Opt for well-marbled steaks at least 1 inch thick for a tender and flavorful result.
  • Use fresh blue cheese: Fresh blue cheese provides a bold and creamy flavor to the crust. Crumble it finely to ensure even distribution.
  • Make sure the steaks are well-seasoned: Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper before cooking to enhance their natural flavor.
  • Sear the steaks over high heat: Searing creates a flavorful crust and locks in the juices. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side or until a nice crust forms.
  • Cook the steaks to your desired doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the steaks are cooked to your preferred doneness. For medium-rare, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F.
  • Rest the steaks before slicing: Allow the steaks to rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to let the juices redistribute, resulting in more tender and juicy meat.
  • Serve with a flavorful red wine sauce: The red wine sauce adds a rich and savory flavor to the steaks. Simmer the sauce until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon.

Conclusion:

Blue cheese-crusted steaks with red wine sauce is an elegant and flavorful dish perfect for special occasions. The combination of the crispy blue cheese crust, tender steak, and rich red wine sauce creates a delightful culinary experience. By following these tips, you can ensure that your blue cheese-crusted steaks turn out perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes, for a complete and satisfying meal.
