Ingredients

• 2 pieces (8 ounces each) sirloin steak
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 1 medium, finely chopped shallot
• 1 cup dry red wine
• 0.5 cup beef broth
• 1 teaspoon, finely chopped fresh thyme
• 1 teaspoon, finely chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon water

Directions

Step 1

Season the sirloin steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let them rest at room temperature for 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sirloin steaks and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or additional time based on desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and tent them with foil to keep warm.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the shallot and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the shallot is softened and fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the red wine and beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze and gather the browned bits. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5-6 minutes until reduced by about half.

Step 5

Stir in the thyme and rosemary, allowing the herbs to infuse into the sauce for about 1 minute.

Step 6

In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly stir this into the simmering sauce and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.

Step 7

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed. Remove from heat.

Step 8

Slice the steak against the grain and serve with the herbed wine sauce drizzled generously over the top. Pair with your favorite side dishes.
