Ingredients

2 Prairie Street Beef Delmonico Steaks
1 bottle dry kosher red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
20 oz unsalted beef or veal stock
1 carrot, diced
1 rib celery, diced
1 shallot, diced
1 bouquet garni including fresh rosemary and fresh thyme
Extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

Remove steaks from refrigerator 30–45 minutes before cooking. Tie butcher's twine around edges. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Heat skillet over medium heat until hot. Add olive oil, sear steaks 2–3 minutes per side for a crust. Transfer to racked baking sheet.
In same skillet, sauté carrot, celery, and shallot in pan drippings for 3–5 minutes.
Add 2 cups red wine, reduce completely (5–6 minutes).
Add stock and bouquet garni, reduce by half (10–12 minutes).
Place steaks in oven for 3–5 minutes until internal temp is 120°F. Rest 7–10 minutes to 125°F for medium rare.
Strain sauce through fine mesh sieve, pressing vegetables to extract liquid.
Remove twine, carve off bones, slice against the grain, and drizzle with sauce.

Chef's Tips

For deeper flavor, reduce the sauce even further until syrupy.
Use a probe thermometer for precision.
Let steaks rest before slicing to preserve juices.

Storage and Reheating

Store in airtight container in refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of broth or wine to keep moist.
