Grilled Beef Steaks with
Espresso-Bourbon Sauce

 

Whether you chose tenderloin steaks or top loin steaks, the rich
Espresso-Bourbon Sauce adds an intriguing flavor complement to the beef. 

Cook's notes:  To broil, place tenderloin steaks on rack in broiler pan so surface of beef
is 2 to 3 inches from heat (top loin steaks 3 to 4 inches from heat). Broil tenderloin
steaks 13 to 16 minutes (top loin steaks 13 to 17 minutes) for medium rare to medium doneness,
turning once.

 
   

Ingredients:

4

beef tenderloin steaks, cut 1 inch thick (about 4 ounces each)
or 2 well-trimmed boneless beef top loin (strip) steaks, cut 1 inch thick (about 2-1/2 pounds)
    Salt and pepper
     
   

Espresso-Bourbon Sauce:

1/4   cup bourbon
1/4   cup maple syrup
1/4   cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1   tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2   teaspoons instant espresso coffee powder
1/8   teaspoon pepper
     
     
   

Instructions:

  1. Combine all sauce ingredients, except pepper, in small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered,
    8 minutes or until sauce is thickened and reduced by about half, stirring occasionally. Stir in pepper. Keep warm.
  2. Place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill tenderloin steaks, uncovered, 13 to 15 minutes (top loin steaks
    15 to 18 minutes) for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally. Season with salt and pepper, as desired.
    Serve with sauce.

Makes 4 servings.
