How to Make Mushroom And Wine Steak Sauce

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
  2. Add 8 ounces of sliced cremini mushrooms, 1/2 cup of chopped onion, and 2 cloves of minced garlic.
  3. Sauté until the mushrooms are golden brown and tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Stir in 1 cup of beef broth, 2 tablespoons of tomato paste, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  6. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  7. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water until smooth.
  8. Gradually whisk about 1/4 cup of the hot mushroom sauce into the cornstarch slurry to temper it.
  9. Pour the tempered slurry back into the saucepan.
  10. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and becomes clear, about 1-2 minutes.
  11. Stir in 1/2 cup of dry red wine (such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot) and cook until heated through.
  12. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve immediately over your favorite steak, hamburgers, or other grilled meats.
