Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 4 (4 ounce) beef top sirloin steaks

  • 1 clove garlic, cut in half lengthwise

  • ¼ cup Irish whiskey (such as Jameson®)

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Directions

  1. Heat butter and oil in a heavy skillet over medium heat until butter has melted. Add onion and sauté until light golden brown, about 10 minutes. Push onion to the sides of the pan.

  2. Rub steaks with cut sides of garlic, then place into the skillet. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook until steaks are browned but still light pink inside, 2 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness.

  3. Remove from the heat. Slowly pour Irish whiskey into the hot skillet; be careful, whiskey fumes are flammable. Mix browned onions into the whiskey and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat.

  4. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper, then garnish with parsley. Turn steaks over to coat both sides with the pan sauce.

  5. Serve steaks and drizzle pan sauce over top.

Recipe Tip

If desired, light the whiskey fumes on fire with a barbecue lighter and allow to cook until the flames die out, about 1 minute.
