Sirloin with Red Wine Sauce
Everyone knows red wine and beef go together. For this recipe, red wine is used to marinate sirloin steak. It's also the principle ingredient in a savory sauce to serve with the grilled meat.
Ingredients
-
Sirloin:
-
1/2 cup dry red wine
-
1 sirloin steak (about 1-1/2 pounds, 1 inch thick)
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
-
Sauce:
-
2 cups dry red wine
-
1/2 cup beef broth
-
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
-
2 teaspoons sugar
-
1/2 teaspoon onion powder

Directions
1.
Heat grill or broiler.
2.
Sirloin: In resealable plastic food-storage bag or glass dish, combine red wine and sirloin; seal bag. Marinate steak at room temperature for 15 minutes. Remove sirloin from bag. Season on both sides with salt and pepper.
