How to Make Steaks Balmoral

  1. Pat the steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over high heat.
  3. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side, until a deep brown crust forms.
  4. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside.
  5. Add the butter to the skillet and melt. Add the shallots and cook until softened, about 3 minutes.
  6. Add the mushrooms and cook until they release their liquid and brown, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Stir in the whisky, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  8. Reduce the heat to low and add the cream. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, until slightly thickened.
  9. Season the sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
  10. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  11. Return the steaks to the skillet. Pour the sauce over the steaks.
  12. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for 10-12 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
  13. Remove from the oven and let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving.
