Crispy Dijon-Crusted Sirloin Steak

Recipe & Food Styling Marisa Curatolo, Photography Jerry Grajewski


This crispy pan-fried steak super flavourful and delicious. It’s savoury and tangy, and most importantly, super tender.


Ingredients

4 (6-ounce) sirloin steaks

1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

1 clove garlic, minced

1/2 cup grainy Dijon mustard

2 teaspoons brown sugar

2 teaspoons ground ginger

1/4 cup cold salted butter, cubed

1/2 cup red wine


Preparation

Mix olive oil, pepper, garlic, mustard, sugar and ginger together in medium bowl, adding a few drops of water if necessary, to form a thick paste.

Rub steaks with paste. Cover and chill for 30 minutes. Heat cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks and cook for 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to platter. Add red wine to skillet, scraping off brown bits at bottom of pan. Add juices from steak and reduce sauce by one third. Swirl in cold butter cubes to thicken sauce. Serve immediately.
