My local Panera no longer makes this salad, my favorite! I found this on a TV station website, supposedly directly from Panera. I have not yet made this version; I am putting it here for safe keeping until I can tinker with it.

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

4 boneless beef sirloin 6 oz.each
1/2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
2 tsp olive oil
2 tsp butter
salt
1/4 c finely chopped shallots
1 large clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 tsp dried herbes de provence (blend of french herbs)
1/3 c red wine or additional beef stock
1/2 c beef stock
1 Tbsp dijon mustard
2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

1. Remove steaks from refrigerator, and season with pepper. Heat a large heavy skillet (I use cast iron) over medium heat until hot; add oil and butter. Increase heat to high; brown steaks about 1 minute on each side.
2. Reduce heat to medium; cook to desired degree of doneness. Transfer to a heated serving platter; season with salt and keep warm. Add shallots, garlic, and herbes to skillet; cook stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in red wine; cook, scraping up any brown bits from bottom of pan, until liquid has almost evaporated.
3. Stir in stock, mustard, and parsley; season with salt ans pepper to taste. Cook, stirring, until slightly reduced. Spoon sauce over steaks. Serve immediately.

Tips:

Choose the right cut of steak: Look for a steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is juicy and flavorful.
Season the steak generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices to season the steak. This will help to create a delicious crust on the outside of the steak.
Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to create a flavorful crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
Let the steak rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Some popular sides for steak include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and grilled asparagus.

Conclusion:

The key to cooking a perfect steak is to use a good quality cut of steak, season it generously, cook it over high heat, and let it rest before serving. By following these tips, you can create a delicious and flavorful steak that will impress your friends and family.
