Bourbon Steak on Crostini
Prep. Time: 15 min.
Cook-Refridgerage Time: 1 hour marinate, 20 min. cook time
Serving Size: 4-6 Servings
Cooking Method(s): Skillet & Oven Baked
Can be used with:
Bc- Black Angus Strip Steaks
Bd - Filet Mignon
Bf - Sirloin Filets
Bg - Flat Iron Steaks
Bi - Strip Steaks
Bj - T-Bone Steaks
Ingredients:
2 lbs. filet mignon trimmed
1 cup Bourbon
salt and pepper
2 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 ½ cup thin sliced white onion
1 cup thinly sliced red onion
1 baguette French bread
Topping: (mix well and set aside until ready to serve)
½ cup sour cream
1 tablespoon horseradish
2 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions:
Marinate beef for 1 hour in Bourbon. Remove beef from bowl and salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to a saute pan large enough for the beef and over high heat brown the filet quickly on all sides. Place filet in preheated oven at 350° F. for 15-18 minutes or until medium rare. Let sit for 15 minutes before slicing.

To prepare the crostini:
Slice the baguette into 36 pieces that are 1/4 to ½ inch thick.
Brush with a mixture of:
3/4 C. olive oil
1 head of roasted garlic cloves

Coat the bread lightly on both sides and toast in the oven until lightly brown at 400° F.

To assemble:
Slice beef into 18 thin slices. Cut down the center so that you have 36 pieces. Put a piece of the filet on the crostini and top with a small amount of the sour cream mixture.

*Tip for Roasting Garlic: Take a whole garlic bulb and cut off the top, exposing the garlic cloves. Place in a dish that can go in the oven and sprinkle with olive oil. I do several at a time as it holds well in the refrigerator. Bake at 400° F. for 25 minutes. Let cool slightly before using.

To use garlic squeeze at the base and the cloves should pop out.

Garlic gets sweet when it is baked this way. Try adding mashed garlic cloves to mashed potatoes for a change

3-½ cups water
1 2-inch cinnamon stick
2 star anise
½ teaspoon Szechuan peppercorn or coriander seeds, or to taste 
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions:
Heat the oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry until aromatic (about 30 seconds). Add the beef. Brown briefly, then stir-fry for 1 minute.

Add the rice wine or sherry, soy sauce, water, cinnamon stick, star anise and the peppercorn or coriander seeds.

Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer, covered, for 2 hours. (Remove the pot lid if the liquid is evaporating too quickly).

Stir in the sugar. Simmer for 10 more minutes, or until the beef is tender. Remove the beef from the pan. Cool. To serve, thinly slice the beef and serve cold on a platter. Garnish with freshly cilantro if desired.

The beef can be made ahead of time and refrigerated or frozen. Store the unsliced beef in a sealed plastic bag or container with a bit of the cooking liquid. Thaw before serving.

Steak Au Poivre Crostini
Prep. Time: 5-10 min.
Cook-Refridgerage Time: 30 min
Serving Size: 24 appetizers
Cooking Method(s): Skillet & Oven Baked
Can be used with:
Bc- Black Angus Strip Steaks
Bd - Filet Mignon
Bf - Sirloin Filets
Bg - Flat Iron Steaks
Bi - Strip Steaks
Bj - T-Bone Steaks
Ingredients:
2-½ tablespoon olive oil, divided
1 pound beef, trimmed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/4 cup cognac or brandy
1-½ cups reduced sodium beef broth
2 tablespoon heavy whipping cream
24 crostini
Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 425° F.

In a medium oven-proof skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over high heat. Rub the tenderloin with the remaining ½ tablespoon of olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Add the beef to the pan and sear on all sides until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Place in the oven and roast until medium-rare, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer the beef to a baking sheet to rest. Cover with foil.

Meanwhile, reheat the skillet over high heat for 30 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat, add the cognac, return to the heat, and ignite. Stand back, and as the flame dies, stir with a wooden spoon to loosen any particles in the bottom of the pan. After the cognac is reduced to 1 tablespoon, add the beef broth, simmering until reduced to ½ cup, about 12 to 15 minutes. Stir in the heavy whipping cream; set aside.

Using a very sharp knife, slice the tenderloin as thin as possible into 24 pieces. Place one slice on a crostini and top each with the warm sauce.
