Shallot And Red Wine Sauce Recipes

RED WINE-SHALLOT SAUCE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan set over high heat, combine red wine and shallots in a small saucepan set over high heat. Bring to a boil, and reduce to medium heat. Simmer until reduced by half, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Heat reserved skillet, without washing, over high heat. Once hot, remove skillet from heat, and carefully pour in wine mixture; stir with a wooden spoon, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer until sauce is reduced by half. Add salt and any juices that have collected under steak; stir to combine. Remove from heat. Add butter; swirl in pan until incorporated. Pour over steak, and serve immediately.

STEAK WITH RED WINE-SHALLOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the steak dry and season generously with salt and pepper on all sides. Place the steak, standing up on the strip of fat, in the pan and hold it with tongs until the fat renders and the pan is slick, about 2 minutes.
• Place the steak flat in the pan and sear until deep brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side until a thermometer inserted sideways into the thickest part registers 120 degrees for medium-rare, 3 to 4 more minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Reserve the drippings in the skillet.
• Add the shallot to the drippings and cook over medium heat until golden, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and scrape up any browned bits with a wooden spoon. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half and slightly syrupy, about 7 minutes; remove from the heat. Whisk in the butter, one piece at a time, to make a glossy sauce. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper or season to taste. Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the sauce.

SHALLOT & RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Sauté 250g sliced shallots in a medium saucepan with 4 tbsp olive oil over a high heat for about 3 mins until lightly browned, stirring often.
• Season with ground black pepper and add 1 lightly crushed garlic clove and a sprig of rosemary.
• Continue cooking for a further 3 mins, stirring often to prevent the shallots burning.
• Pour in 5 tbsp balsamic vinegar and cook until evaporated away to a syrup, then pour in 400ml red wine and cook until reduced by two thirds.
• Pour in 400ml beef or brown chicken stock and bring to the boil.
• Turn down the heat and simmer until reduced by two-thirds again, to around 250ml. Remove the garlic and rosemary.
• Add a little salt to taste and finally 'monte' (whisk) in a knob of butter. Add any juices from the steaks just before serving.

RED WINE REDUCTION SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook shallot in hot oil until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
• Pour wine into saucepan; cook, stirring regularly, until reduced in volume by half, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Stir beef broth with the wine. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook at a simmer until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir butter and Italian seasoning into the sauce; cook until butter is completely melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt.

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt 5 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the shallots and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the wine, beef broth, thyme sprigs, salt, pepper and sugar, and bring to a boil. Cook over medium heat for about 30 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced by about half.
• While the liquid is reducing, place the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter in a small bowl and soften in the microwave, if necessary (it should be soft but not melted). Add the flour and, using a small spoon, mix into a smooth paste.
• Once the wine mixture is reduced, reduce the heat to low and remove the thyme sprigs. Whisk the flour-butter paste, a teaspoonful at a time, into the simmering liquid, and simmer for a few minutes, until the sauce is thickened. Set aside. (The sauce can be made up to this point and refrigerated up to 3 days ahead of time.)
• Let the beef stand at room temperature for 1 hour before roasting. Set an oven rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Season the beef all over with kosher salt and pepper. Heat the oil in an oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Cook, turning with tongs, until well browned on all but one side, about 10 minutes total. Turn the tenderloin so that the un-seared side is down, and transfer the skillet directly to the preheated oven. (If your pan isn't oven-proof, transfer the beef to a lightly oiled roasting pan.) Roast until a thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 120°F-125° for medium rare, about 15 minutes, or until done to your liking (115°F-120°F for rare, 130°F-135°F for medium). Keep in mind that these temperatures account for the fact that the temperature will continue to rise about 5 degrees while the meat rests.
• Transfer the meat to a carving board (preferably with a well for collecting juices) and let it rest, covered loosely with aluminum foil, for 10 to 15 minutes. Place a dishtowel or oven mitt over the handle of the roasting pan to remind yourself that it's hot.
• Meanwhile, carefully discard the fat from the roasting pan (remember that the handle is hot!). Set the pan on the stovetop and add the ¼ cup of beef broth. Bring the broth to a boil, using a wooden spoon to scrape the fond, or brown bits, from the bottom of the pan. Add the flavorful broth to the red wine sauce, and then bring the sauce to a simmer.
• Carve the tenderloin into ⅓-inch-thick slices. Serve the beef, passing the red wine sauce at the table.

RED WINE SHALLOT SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium sized saucepan, sauté the shallots in 1 tablespoon of the butter until translucent.
• Add the wine, thyme, bay leaf and peppercorns and reduce to about ½ cup.
• Add the demi glace and again reduce to ½ cup.
• Strain the sauce into a small saucepan. (Optional)
• Over low heat, slowly add the remaining butter 1 tablespoon at a time using a whisk to incorporate.
• Reduce until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
• Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

SHALLOT AND RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Saute the shallots in a medium saucepan with the oil, over high heat for 3 minutes until lightly brown. Stir them all the time and adjust heat if they start to get too brown. Season with ground black pepper and then add the garlic and rosemary. Continue cooking for 3 more minutes. Stir all the time and adjust the heat to keep from getting too brown.
• Pour in the vinegar and cook until it evaporates to a syrup, then pour in the wine and cook until reduced by 2/3.
• Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. Turn down the heat and simmer until reduced by 2/3 again, to around 250 ml.
• Remove the garlic and rosemary.
• Add a little salt if necessary.
• Finally whisk in the butter.
• Serve over steak before serving.

GRILLED FLANK STEAK WITH SHALLOT AND RED WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, saute the shallots in 2 tablespoons of the olive oil until lightly caramelized, about 5 to 7 minutes. Raise the heat to high and add the red wine and reduce by half. Add the broth and reduce by half. Check for seasoning, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep warm on low heat.
• Brush the flank steak on both sides with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and season with the salt and pepper. Place on the center of grill and sear 5 to 8 minutes per side for rare to medium rare, testing by pressing the meat with a finger: The spongier the meat feels, the rarer it is cooked. Remove from the grill and allow to rest, very loosely tented with aluminum foil, 5 to 10 minutes, to allow the juices to reabsorb into the meat. Slice the flank steak on the diagonal and place on a large platter. Finish the sauce by swirling in the chunks of cold butter, then top the steak with some of the sauce and serve the rest on the side.
