Steak

Wild Rice

Method

Preparing the Wild Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Rinse 1 cup of wild rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a pot, combine the rinsed wild rice, 3 cups of water, and 1 tsp of salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Simmer

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for about 45-50 minutes or until the rice is tender and the grains start to burst.

  4. 4

    Fluff the Rice

    Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Cooking the Steak

  1. 5

    Season the Steaks

    Season both York and Strip steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  2. 6

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  3. 7

    Cook the Steaks

    Add the steaks to the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

  4. 8

    Rest the Steaks

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Making the Mushroom Sauce

  1. 9

    Sauté the Mushrooms

    In the same skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and minced garlic. Sauté until the mushrooms are browned and tender, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 10

    Add Cream

    Pour in 1 cup of heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  3. 11

    Finish the Sauce

    Stir in the chopped fresh parsley and season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.

Assembly

  1. 12

    Plate the Dish

    On each plate, create a bed of wild rice, then place the sliced steaks on top.

  2. 13

    Serve with Sauce

    Spoon the mushroom sauce generously over the steaks and serve immediately.
