Steak Chasseur (Steak With Mushrooms And Red Wine)
Recipe by Linda Gassenheimer. Makes 2 servings.
½ cup dry red wine
½ cup fat-free, low-salt chicken broth*
1 tablespoon tomato paste (no salt added)**
10 ounces beef tenderloin (½-inch thick)
Olive oil spray
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
¾ pound red potatoes, washed, unpeeled, cut into ½ inch pieces
1 cup sliced onion
2 cups sliced button mushrooms
3 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon flour
¼ cup freshly chopped parsley
Mix the red wine, chicken broth and tomato paste together and set aside. Remove visible fat from steak. Heat a medium-size nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with olive oil spray. Add steak and brown 3 minutes turn over and brown 3 more minutes. A meat thermometer should read 125 degrees for rare and 145 degrees for medium-rare. Remove to a plate. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Lower heat to medium and add the canola oil. Add potatoes, onion, mushrooms and garlic. Saute 20 minutes, stirring several times. The potatoes should be cooked through. Sprinkle with flour and stir vegetables until the flour is absorbed. Add wine mixture to the skillet. Lower heat and cook 2 minutes or until sauce is thick. Add salt and pepper to taste. Divide between 2 dinner plates. Slice the steak and place on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle parsley on top.
