Espresso-Bourbon Steaks With Mashed Sweet Potatoes Recipe - Food.com image

A favorite recipe from National Cattlemen's Beef Association - The Beef Checkoff. We don't have steaks often, but this sounds so good that I might have to run out to the market for some tenderloins. I may also make this dish for my Christmas Eve dinner. This should wow my family and be a nice break from my traditional meal.

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 beef tenderloin steaks (about 1 inch thick - 4 oz. each)
2 -4 teaspoons black pepper, coarsely ground
1/4 cup Bourbon
1/4 cup maple syrup (or more to taste)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons instant espresso coffee powder
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
9 ounces sweet potatoes (peeled and cubed)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Combine all sauce ingredients, except pepper, in a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered 12-15 minutes or until sauce is thickened and reduced by about half, stirring occasionally. Stir in pepper. Keep warm.
  • Prepare mashed potatoes by boiling potatoes in water with 1 teaspoons salt. Cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook 4-5 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain. Combine potatoes, 2 tablespoons butter, salt and pepper. Beat until mashed and smooth.
  • Meanwhile, press coarsely cracked pepper on both sides of steaks. Place steaks on grill over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, 13-15 minutes for medium rare doneness, turning once.
  • Evenly divide sauce onto 4 plates. Place steak on top of sauce. Serve with Mashed Sweet Potatoes and green beans (if desired).
