Ingredients




4 8-ounces NY Steaks
13 ounces shallots, peeled and halved
2 tablespoons olive oil
3/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
salt
pepper

Preparation

1 Preheat oven at 360F. 2 Place shallots in large bowl and drizzle with olive oil.  Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Make sure the shallots are entirely coated with the olive oil. 3 Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 20-25 minutes or until tender. 4 Add vinegars and sugar in a medium saucepan over low heat and stir until sugar dissolves. 5 Add shallots when done and cook, stirring occasionally for 10-15 minutes or until lightly caramelized. 6 Generously season the NY steaks with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over high heat. When hot, add the steaks and cook to desire liking. 7 Serve sauce over the steaks.

About

Doesn’t sound good? It sure was. This recipe was shared with me from my friend and chef Eliane from Born To Taste.
We made it while I was staying with her this summer and I felt in love with it. I do love shallots to start with , but the balsamic vinegar with the sugar create such a hearty caramel rich in flavor that  you are in for a real treat.
I served it along side Pomme de Terre Fondantes , but any potatoes of your choice will be excellent. Soak up the juice from the shallots. Roasted baby carrots are a good compliment as well alongside.
