Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Season the sirloin steak generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides. (2 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet (cast iron is ideal) over high heat until a drop of water immediately sizzles and evaporates upon contact. Pour in the olive oil. (3 minutes)

03

Step
8 mins

Carefully place the steak in the hot skillet and sear for about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center to ensure it reaches 130-135°F (54-57°C) for medium-rare. (8 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Remove the steak from the skillet and transfer it to a cutting board. Tent loosely with foil to keep warm and allow the juices to redistribute. (1 minute)

05

Step
5 mins

Pour off any excess oil from the skillet, leaving behind any flavorful browned bits (fond). Reduce the heat to medium-low. (1 minute)

06

Step
3 mins

Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms, shallot, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are softened and the shallots are translucent, about 5 minutes. (5 minutes)

07

Step
3 mins

Pour in the dry white wine and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Allow the wine to reduce slightly, about 2 minutes. (2 minutes)

08

Step
1 mins

Pour in the beef broth and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and gently whisk in the cold butter, one cube at a time, allowing each cube to melt completely before adding the next. This creates a rich and emulsified sauce. (5 minutes)

09

Step
2 mins

Stir in the chopped fresh tarragon and season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste. (1 minute)

10

Step

Slice the steak against the grain and arrange it on a serving plate. Spoon the mushroom sauce generously over the steak and serve immediately.

For the best results, use a high-quality sirloin steak with good marbling.
Allow the steak to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking for more even cooking.
Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the mushrooms; cook in batches if necessary to ensure they brown properly.
Adjust the amount of butter to your liking; more butter will result in a richer sauce.
Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, asparagus, or a simple green salad.

    The tarragon adds such a unique and delicious flavor.

  • Jaquan Bahringer

    I found that 3 minutes per side was enough for medium-rare, but it really depends on the thickness of the steak.
