Ingredients
Morello Cherry Sauce:
2 Cups Crofter’s Organic Premium Morello Cherry Fruit Spread
2 Tbsp Minced Shallot
2 Tsp Fresh Thyme Leaves
1 Tbsp Whole Grain Mustard
1/3 Cup Whiskey
3 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
1 Tbsp Melted Butter
Dash of Salt
Dash of Pepper
Steaks:
3 10oz New York Strip Steaks
Salt
Pepper
1 Tbsp Canola Oil
2 Tbsp Butter
2 Crushed Garlic Cloves
3-4 Sprigs of Thyme
Fresh Chive (Garnish)
Sesame Seeds (Garnish)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine all the Morello Cherry Sauce ingredients. Whisk to combine. Transfer the sauce to a medium sized sauce pot and place over medium-low heat for 20-25 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Stirring regularly.
- While the sauce is thickening, prepare the steaks. Season the steaks on both sides generously with salt and pepper. Place a skillet over high heat and add the canola oil to the pan.
- Once it is shimmering, sear the steaks on each side for 3-4 minutes. For the final minute of each sear, reduce the heat and add in the 2 tbsp butter, crushed garlic cloves, and thyme. As the butter melts, spoon it on top of the steaks basting them.
- Next, allow the steaks to rest for 5 minutes on a cutting board. By this time, the sauce should be ready. Remove from the heat and brush the Morello Cherry Sauce generously on each side of the steaks. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Finish cooking the steaks in the oven for about 10 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 130°F. This will get you about a medium rare steak. Continue cooking if you like your steaks more well done.
- Once ready, remove from the oven and allow to rest. Slice the steaks in to strips and top with a sprinkle of fresh chives and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
