Quick Braised Sirloin With Horseradish Sauce
- 1 bone in sirloin steak, 2 lbs.
- 1 tablespoon grape seed oil
- 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 2 teaspoons fresh garlic minced
- 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh marjoram, minced
- 2 to 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 1/2 cups unsalted beef or chicken stock
- kosher salt and fresh ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon chives for garnish, minced
- Pull the steak out of the fridge 30 minutes before you want to begin cooking and season it liberally with salt and a few grinds of fresh ground pepper.
- Heat a large and heavy non-reactive saute pan over high heat. Add the grape seed oil and then carefully add the sirloin. Sear it till it becomes deeply browned. Flip and do the same to the other side.
- Near the end of searing add the butter and let it melt but not burn. Reduce the heat to medium.
- Remove the steak from the pan to a plate and add the flour and stir it in quickly. Add the garlic, let it become fragrant but not brown, and then add the stock.
- Add the marjoram and the horseradish and season the braising liquid with salt and pepper. Bring it to a boil, add the steak and any juice back to the pan. Reduce the heat.
- Cook another 10 to 15 minutes and then remove the steak to a warm platter. Turn the heat to high and reduce the pan sauce to thicken it.
- Ladle sauce over the sirloin, garnish with chives and serve.
