How To Make sirloins a la girardi
-
Step 1Heat 1/3 cup of clarified butter in a skillet. Salt and pepper the steaks as desired. Saute the steaks in clarified butter over medium-high heat until brown on the outside and medium-rare inside. Remove and set aside on a covered plate.
-
Step 2Degrease the skillet by wiping it out with a paper towel. Add 2 tablespoons clarified butter, and saute the smoked ham for 2 to 3 minutes over medium high heat.
-
Step 3Add the onions and saute until golden.
-
Step 4Add the mushrooms and saute 4 to 5 minutes.
-
Step 5Add the white wine and reduce almost all of the liquid. Add the bay leaf, cream, and stock, and reduce to a sauce consistency.
-
Step 6Swirl in the butter and whisk in the mustard. Do not allow the sauce to boil again or the mustard will have a bitter taste.
-
Step 7Stir in the parsley, any meat juice from the covered plate, the capers, and salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf.
-
Step 8Place the meat on 6 warm plates, topped with the sauce. Garnish with sour cream piped through a pastry bag if desired.
