Ingredients
- 350 g rib-eye or top sirloin steak , about 1-in. thick
- vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp five-spice powder , optional
- pinch salt
- pinch coarsely ground black pepper
- 350 g mixed fresh mushrooms , such as shiitake, cremini and oyster
- 2 tbsp butter
- 3 tbsp brandy
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce , or 2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
- 1 green onion , thinly sliced
Instructions
- Bring steak to room temperature. Place oven rack about 3 in. (7.5 cm) from broiler. Preheat broiler. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Brush steak all over with oil. Sprinkle both sides with five-spice powder, salt and pepper, then rub in. Then place steak on rack.
- Discard stems from shiitake mushrooms. Thickly slice caps. Thickly slice cremini and oyster mushrooms. Melt butter in a frying pan over medium heat. Add shiitake and cremini mushrooms. Stir often until softened around edges, 5 to 7 min. Stir in oyster mushrooms, brandy, hoisin and green onion. Stir often until very bubbly, 2 min. Remove from heat and cover.
- After you start mushrooms cooking, place steak under broiler. For medium rare, broil until beef gives slight resistance when pressed with your finger, about 4 min per side. Remove to a cutting board. Let rest 5 min before slicing and placing on one or two warmed plates, depending on how you are going to share. Spoon mushrooms and sauce overtop.
