Another one adapted from NYT Cookbook. This is a great recipe for second tier cuts of steak, like sirloin.
Ingredients
- Steaks
- Half a lemon
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- Whole peppercorns
- Worcestershire Sauce
- Tabasco
- Brown liquor (preferably high proof)
- Put a few peppercorns on each side of each steak and tenderize.
- Put a pinch of salt in the bottom of a cast iron skillet and heat the skillet until the salt starts to brown.
- Add the steaks, and cook until the steaks have mostly reached your desired temperature.
- Remove the steaks.
- Turn the heat off of the skill and scrap the bottom of the skillet to separate the browned pieces of steak from the bottom of the skillet.
- When the skillet is cool enough to not burn the butter, add it.
- When the butter has melted, add the lemon, Tabasco and Worcester sauce. Briefly let the sauce reduce.
- Add the steaks back into the skillet.
- Pour the brown liquor over the steaks.
- Light it on fire.
