Ingredients
 
 

  • 4 top sirloin, New York, or rib eye steaks , about 8 ounces each (can substitute chicken or pork)
  • salt and pepper
  • For the Chanterelle Cream Sauce:
  • 6 oz chanterelle mushrooms (preferably fresh but can use dry and reconstitute them: soak for 30 minutes then thoroughly drain)
  • 1 tbs butter
  • 2 tbs finely minced shallots
  • 2 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1/4 cup dry white wine (e.g. Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay)
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black peppercorns
  • 1 tsp chicken bouillon base
  • fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Carefully clean the mushrooms. Dry-fry them in a pan until most of the moisture from mushrooms is cooked out. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in the pan. Saute the shallots and garlic until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and the mushrooms and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook, covered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the cover and continue to cook for another 5 minutes. Add more heavy cream for a thicker sauce, add more wine for a thinner sauce.
  • Generously rub the steaks with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Prepare a grill or cast iron ribbed pan. Grill on both sides for 3-5 minutes, or until desired doneness is reached.
    Spoon the sauce over the steaks, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve immediately.
