Balsamic Glazed Minute Steaks with Mushrooms
Minute steaks are great for busy weeknights dinners. Simple and quick , yet tasty and substantial. Serve with cooked mushroom in sandwiches with sweet and slightly sour balsamic graze.
Ingredients:
-
3 x thick Quality Mark eye fillet steaks each cut into three 1cm thick ‘minute’ steaks (see Cook’s Tip)
-
4-8 field mushrooms – depending on their size, allow 1-2 per person
-
¼ cup olive oil
-
2 big cloves garlic
-
Salt and pepper
-
Balsamic Glaze
-
½ cup balsamic vinegar
-
1 firmly packed Tbsp brown sugar
Method:
Minute Steaks
Crush the garlic cloves and stir them into the oil. Brush the steaks and the mushrooms with the garlicky oil. Then season the steaks lightly with a little salt and pepper.
Place the mushrooms under the grill and cook until tender. While the mushrooms are cooking, heat your BBQ grill or a frying pan until smoking hot.
Add the steaks and reduce the heat to medium. Cook them for 2 minutes, turning once halfway through the cooking time.
Great as a sandwich, or with creamy mash, or risotto and salad. Top with the cooked mushrooms and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
Balsamic Glaze
Combine the vinegar and brown sugar in a small saucepan and simmer gently for around 5 minutes until slightly thickened. The glaze will become more syrupy as it cools.
Balsamic glaze can be stored in the fridge for several weeks.
