Steps:
- Begin by heating the red wine on medium high heat and bring to a boil, then reduce it to low. Let the wine reduce down so the flavor is concentrated. This should take about 10 minutes or so. Allow it to cool an additional 10 minutes before adding to the butter mixture.
- In a bowl, combine the other ingredients and then using a hand mixer, stand mixer, or food processor incorporate the red wine. I do not recommend mixing the wine in by hand or it could leave a small amount of residue (some remaining liquid on the top).
- Place the butter mixture onto a rectangle of parchment or plastic wrap. Roll into a log and twist the sides closed. Freeze for 30 minutes or until needed.
- Prepare your steak as desired and remove from the heat. Add a pad of the red wine compound butter over the top of the meat while it rests, lightly tented with foil and then serve.

Steps:
- For the red wine-rosemary butter: Place the wine and the rosemary sprig in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the wine has reduced to a syrup and measures approximately 2 tablespoons, about 20 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before removing and discarding the rosemary sprig. Place the butter, the chopped rosemary and the salt in a food processor and pulse to combine. Add the wine syrup and process until fully integrated, about 1 minute. Set aside.
- For the strip steak: Preheat a grill or grill pan to high heat. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, rosemary, salt and garlic, and rub the mixture all over the steaks. Place the steaks on the grill and sear for 4 minutes without moving to form a golden brown crust. Flip the steaks and sear on the reverse side until crusty on the outside and medium-rare at the center, another 3 minutes. Remove the steaks to a plate and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, drizzle about 1 teaspoon olive oil over the lemon halves and place them, cut side down, on the grill. Grill until charred and fragrant, 3 minutes.
- To serve: Transfer each steak to a plate and top with a dollop of red wine butter and a squeeze of the charred lemon.
PAN-SEARED STEAK WITH RED WINE SAUCE
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.

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.

Steps:
- Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and shallot and cook, stirring, until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Add the coriander seed and peppercorns and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Pull the pan from the heat and add the port and wine. Return the pan to the heat and, if cooking over a gas burner, tip the pan to let the alcohol ignite. (If cooking over electric or halogen, just keep cooking the mixture.) Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer briskly until syrupy, 20 to 25 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Beat the remaning butter in a medium bowl with a handheld electric mixer or whisk until smooth and light. Add the reduced wine mixture, vinegar, parsley and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and beat until evenly mixed.
- Spread a 12-inch-long piece of plastic wrap on a work surface. Mound the butter across the plastic wrap, about 2 inches from edge nearest you. Fold the bottom edge of the plastic wrap over the butter and roll in up to make a 1-inch-wider log. Twist the ends together in opposite directions (like a party favor) and refrigerate until firm.
- Prepare an outdoor grill with a high fire.
- Brush grill grate lightly with oil. Season the steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper, to taste. Grill 3 to 5 minutes, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the meat reads 120°F to 125°F for rare; 125°F to 130°F for medium-rare; or 130°F to 135°F for medium. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve each steak topped with a 3/4-inch-thick slice of the wine butter.
- COOK'S NOTE:.
- Any leftover butter can be frozen and used with lamb and pork.

Steps:
- Heat half the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season 2 steaks with 3/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper. Cook until deep golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reaches 130 degrees, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter, and tent with foil. Repeat with remaining oil and steaks. Let steaks rest in a 250 degree oven.
- Reduce heat to medium, and add wine to skillet. Cook until almost completely reduced, about 5 minutes. Add beef stock, and cook until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 2 1/2 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and whisk in butter (1 piece at a time) and mustard. Stir in any juices from the platter, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over steaks.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality shell steaks: Look for steaks that are firm and have a deep red color. Avoid steaks that are thin or have a lot of marbling.
- Season the steaks well: Season the steaks with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices before cooking. This will help to enhance the flavor of the steaks.
- Cook the steaks over medium-high heat: This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the steaks while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- Baste the steaks with the red wine butter: This will help to keep the steaks moist and flavorful. You can also add other ingredients to the red wine butter, such as herbs, garlic, or shallots.
- Let the steaks rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Conclusion:
Shell steaks are a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you grill them, pan-fry them, or bake them, shell steaks are sure to please everyone at the table. The red wine butter sauce is a perfect complement to the steaks, adding a rich and flavorful dimension to the dish. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a restaurant-quality meal that is sure to impress your friends and family.
