Brandy Sauced Tenderloin Steaks, inspired by Bob! image

I was planning to make Bob's Sweet & Sour Pork Chops for dinner, when I noticed that what I had thawed were not pork chops, but beef tenderloin steaks. I decided to give it a try anyway, then also got to noticing that I was missing a few of his ingredients. My mushrooms were bad, so I substituted shallots. I used balsamic ketchup...

Categories     Steaks and Chops

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 beef tenderloin steaks, about 5 oz each
2 small shallots, chopped
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 c soy sauce
1/4 c balsamic vinegar ketchup*
* to make the ketchup, stir 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar into 1/4 cup ketchup.
1/4 tsp chili powder
1/3 c sorghum
3 Tbsp honey
2 oz brandy

Steps:

  • 1. You will need a cast iron skillet that will hold the steaks. Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • 2. Melt the butter over medium heat in the skillet, and sauté the shallots until softened but not browned. Remove shallots and set aside. Remove skillet from heat.
  • 3. Stir together soy sauce, ketchup, chili powder, sorghum, honey, and brandy in a small mixing bowl. Stir in shallots.
  • 4. Place steaks in the iron skillet and pour sauce over all. Put skillet in preheated oven, and bake for 40-45 minutes for medium-to-medium-well steaks. Test for doneness with an instant-read meat thermometer if desired, but this really should be long enough to cook them through.
