Named in honor of Diana, the Roman goddess of the hunt, “Steak Diane” celebrates a quality cut of meat by bathing it in a luscious, Sherry-spiked sauce of pan juices with cream, cremini mushrooms, and a hint of Dijon mustard. Traditionally made with venison, our version uses tender flat-iron steaks. To make this a meal truly fit for a mythological deity, we round it out with buttery whipped potatoes and roasted asparagus.

- Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |

1 Prepare the Ingredients
Peel potatoes and cut into 1" chunks. Bring a medium pot with potatoes and enough lightly salted water to cover to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until tender, 12-16 minutes. While potatoes simmer, trim woody ends off asparagus. Cut mushrooms into ¼" slices. Peel and mince shallot. Pat steaks dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper.
-
2 Roast the Asparagus
Place asparagus on prepared baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast in hot oven, 5 minutes. Remove from oven and carefully move asparagus to one side to make room for steaks. Asparagus will finish cooking in a later step. While asparagus roasts, sear steaks.
-
3 Cook the Steaks
Season steaks on both sides with Worcestershire. Heat 1 tsp. olive oil in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat. Remove steaks from Worcestershire, letting excess drip off. Reserve Worcestershire. Add steaks to hot pan and sear undisturbed until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. Flip steaks, and place in empty space on baking sheet. Pour reserved Worcestershire over. Roast until asparagus is tender and steaks reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes. Remove cooked steaks to a plate, tent with foil, and rest at least 5 minutes. Reserve pan; no need to wipe clean. While steaks roast, finish potatoes.
-
4 Make the Potatoes
Drain cooked potatoes in a colander. Return to pot and add half the butter, half the cream (reserve remaining of both for sauce), ¼ tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Mash until smooth. Cover and set aside.
-
5 Make Sauce and Finish Dish
Return pan used to cook steaks to medium heat. Add remaining butter, shallot, and mushrooms to hot pan and stir occasionally until aromatic, 3-4 minutes. Add demi-glace, ½ cup water, Dijon mustard, sherry, and remaining cream and stir occasionally until sauce is creamy and slightly thickened, 3-5 minutes. Remove from burner. Plate dish as pictured on front of card, spooning sauce over potatoes and steak. Bon appétit!
