Best 4 Sherry Shallot Sauce Recipes

SHERRY-SHALLOT VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Whisk together the vinegar, shallots and a generous pinch of salt in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in the oil, starting with a few drops and then adding the rest in a steady stream to make a smooth, slightly thick dressing. Whisk in a couple turns of freshly ground black pepper.

SHERRY CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat.
• Press the garlic or smash it with the side of a knife and then mince it very finely.
• Add minced garlic to butter. Add onion and clam base. Sauté for about 1 minute.
• Add 1 heavy whipping cream and sherry; bring to a simmer.
• Reduce heat and simmer for 5 to 8 minutes to reduce the sauce by about 1/4 to 1/3.
• Taste and add salt and pepper, along with other seasonings you might like.
• For extra color and flavor, add a dash of paprika, Cajun seasoning, or nutmeg to the sauce.

HANGER STEAK WITH SHALLOT CHERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan or outdoor grill to medium.
• Drizzle 2 tablespoons of oil over steaks and season all sides with salt and pepper, to taste. Put on a hot grill pan or outdoor grill. Allow the meat to cook for about 3 minutes on the first side without moving. Turn, and cook until preferred doneness is reached, another 5 minutes (just a bit more for larger cuts). Remove the steaks from the grill to a cutting board and allow to rest 5 to 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. In a medium saucepan over high heat, add the shallots and remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and cook until golden. Deglaze the pan with pomegranate juice, scraping up the brown bits, then stir in the cherry preserves. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook until thick. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
• Thinly slice the steak against the grain and arrange on serving plates. Serve with the cherry sauce.
