You'll love the robust leek sauce that tops this succulent sirloin.

Serves: 4
Serving Size: 1/4 pound sirloin and 1/4 cup sauce

Vegetable oil spray
1-lb sirloin steak, cut about 1 1/2 inches thick, all visible fat removed
3/4 cup water and 1/4 cup dry red wine OR 1 cup water
1/2 cup sliced leeks
1/2 tsp low-sodium beef bouillon granules
1/2 tsp bottled minced garlic
4 tsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp water

Spray a 10-inch skillet with vegetable oil. Place over medium-high heat.
Add steak to hot skillet and cook on one side for 8 minutes. Turn and
cook 8 minutes more or until steak reaches desired doneness. Remove
steak from skillet; cover tightly with foil to keep warm.

Add water-and-wine mixture, leeks, bouillon granules, and garlic to
skillet. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 3 minutes.

In a small bowl, stir together the flour and the 2 tablespoons water.
Add to skillet. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly, about
2 minutes. Cook 1 minute more, stirring constantly.

To serve, slice the steak crosswise into 1/2-inch-wide slices and serve
with the leek sauce.

Cook's Tip - -
Leeks look like overgrown green onions and have a mild onion flavor.
Cut off and discard the shaggy roots at the end of the bulb and the
tough green leaves. The white stalk that remains is the part you use
for cooking. Be sure to rinse leeks thoroughly to remove the sandy
grit that collects in their stalks.
