Preparation

What You Need

Salt

Pepper

1 lb (450 g) boneless beef sirloin or

other grilling steak, (about 3/4-inch/2 cm thick)

1 tbsp (15 ml) butter

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 each, small sweet red, yellow and green pepper, thinly sliced

1/2 tsp (2 ml) dried thyme or

rosemary, crumbled

2 tbsp (30 ml) all-purpose flour

1 1/2 cups (375 ml) milk

1 tbsp (15 ml) Dijon mustard

2 tsp (10 ml) Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

Sprinkle steak with 1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat; brown steak on both sides, about 2 min per side. Transfer to plate.

Reduce heat to medium; add garlic, red, yellow and green peppers and thyme to skillet. Cook, stirring often, for about 5 min or until soft. Whisk flour into milk; whisk in mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Gradually stir milk mixture into skillet, scraping up any brown bits stuck to pan.

Simmer, stirring often, for about 5 min or until slightly thickened. Return steak and accumulated juices to pan, spooning sauce over steak. Simmer, turning steak once, for 5 to 10 min or until steak is desired doneness. Transfer steak to cutting board; let rest for 5 min. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Slice steak thinly across the grain and serve with sauce.

Tips

Cooking Tip:
Heat the pan well before adding the butter to brown the steak to prevent the steak from sticking and to get the best browning.

For the Adventurous:
Use boneless rib steak, beef tenderloin medallions or veal chops or cutlets. Add 1 chopped hot pepper with sweet peppers and 1/4 cup (50 mL) dry red wine before adding flour.

Healthy Eating Tip:
This recipe is bursting with vitamin C; make sure you're topped up in cold season!
