1
Make the Base
In a medium saucepan, combine the beef stock, red wine, shallots, bay leaf, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
2
Reduce the Sauce
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer uncovered for about 30-40 minutes or until the liquid has reduced by half.
3
Finish the Sauce
Remove the bay leaf and strain the sauce into a clean saucepan. Return to low heat and stir in butter until melted and the sauce is glossy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

4
Prepare the Steak
Remove the sirloin steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook evenly.
5
Season the Steak
Generously season both sides of the sirloin with salt and black pepper.
6
Cook the Steak
In a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the sirloin and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if desired.
7
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for at least 5 minutes before slicing.
8
Serve with Demi Glace
Slice the sirloin against the grain and serve topped with the prepared demi glace.
