  • Steak with Portabella Ragout

    I am posting the original recipe - though I made it without the port as port is quite sweet.

    3 tablespoons butter
    5 shallots, sliced
    1 pound mixed wild mushrooms (such as shiitake, portabella, oyster and crimini), sliced
    3/4 cup tawny Port (not for induction, very sweet)
    3/4 cup canned beef broth


    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    4 3/4-inch-thick rib-eye steaks (each about 8 ounces), trimmed
    1/4 cup whipping cream
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon or 2 teaspoons dried Chopped fresh Italian parsley





    Melt 2 tablespoons butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and stir until beginning to soften, about 6 minutes. Add Port (optional) and broth and boil until liquid is syrupy, about 10 minutes. (Can be made 6 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)

    Melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter with oil in heavy large skillet over high heat (or grill, though I wouldn't recommend charcoal grilling with this sauce, or broil). Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Add to skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plates. Bring mushrooms to simmer. Add cream and tarragon and boil until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mushrooms over steaks. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
