Beef Preparation

Method

Prepare the Steak

  1. 1

    Season and Bread the Steaks

    Season the sirloin steaks with salt and pepper. Brush each steak lightly with olive oil, then press each side into the seasoned bread crumbs to coat evenly.

  2. 2

    Charbroil the Steaks

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the breaded steaks for about 4–5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is achieved. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.

Prepare the Sauce

  1. 3

    Sauté the Garlic and Mushrooms

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add sliced mushrooms and cook for 5–7 minutes, until tender and lightly browned.

  2. 4

    Add Lemon and Wine

    Stir in the lemon juice and white wine (if using). Season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly reduced.

Assemble and Serve

  1. 5

    Place each grilled steak on a plate and spoon the mushroom, garlic, and lemon sauce over the top. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately.
