Now I’m sure you’re thinking “What the h-e-double-hockey-sticks is ‘French onion soup steak?'” Well, it’s what happens when you have left over French onion soup from culinary class and don’t really know what to do with it. The main ingredients are onions, red wine or port, and beef stock – sure sounds like the makings of a delicious steak sauce to me! Just add the steak and maybe some sliced mushrooms, and BAM! (It appears that Emeril is subconsciously influencing my life and I don’t even watch his television show – proof of the power of good marketing.) Also, I must say that roasted broccoli is one of my new favorite vegetable side dishes. It’s one of the simplest ways to prepare the miniature green, tree-like organisms, and also one of the most delicious.
Season the steak with salt and pepper and sear in vegetable oil for a couple of minutes on each side. Remove from the pan and proceed to saute sliced mushrooms seasoned with salt and pepper until they develop some nice color. Add the leftover soup and place the steak back in the pan. Let it all hang out together for a couple of minutes so the meat can absorb some of the flavors form the sauce.
Moving on… 1) Cut the broccoli into mini florets. 2) Drizzle with olive oil. 3) Season with salt and pepper. 4) Toss to coat evenly. 5) Roast in a 450 degree oven for 20-25 minutes until it develops a slight char.
Add rice and eat.
