Ready in: 30 mins

Ingredients

Makes: 1 steak

• 1 tablespoon coarse salt
• 1 tablespoon fresh cracked peppercorns
• 1 skirt steak (or more)
• 1 (8 ounce) package dried porcini mushrooms
• 4 to 5 oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
• 1 cup Cabernet Sauvignon red wine
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 green bell pepper, chopped

Preparation method

Prep: 10 mins | Cook: 20 mins

1. Heat your gas or charcoal grill to high (Here’s how to tell if it’s high: Hold your hand about four inches above the cooking surface. After 2 to 3 seconds, the heat will force you to pull your hand away.)
2. While grill is heating, combine salt and pepper in a small bowl. Season steak with the spice mixture, 1 teaspoon per side. In a small bowl, reconstitute mushrooms and tomatoes in boiling water. Set aside.
3. Oil the grill grate, using an oiled rag.
4. Place the steak on the grill. Use these cooking times to cook your steak to medium: 2 to 3 minutes per side for a 1/2-inch thick steak, 4 to 6 minutes per side for a 1-inch thick steak, 6 to 9 minutes per side for a 1 1/2 to 2-inch thick steak. When steak is done, set aside on a platter.
5. In a skillet on medium heat, pour 1/2 cup wine. Let it warm through and begin to reduce, about 5 minutes. Then add butter and remaining wine to pan and reduce until fully thickened, 5 to 10 minutes longer. Pour over steak.
6. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and saute peppers, mushrooms and sun-dried tomatoes until pepper is crisp tender, about 5 minutes. Add to steak platter and serve. Note

Recipe makes 2 tablespoons of rub, enough for 3 steaks, and 3/4 cup of sauce.
