Bistro Steak Frites Recipe

Bistro Steak Frites

Serves 6

No need to fly all the way to Paris to enjoy this classic combination of steak with butter-and-herb sauce and oven-fried potato fries. Start your meal with our bistro salad; and for a super easy dessert in keeping with the theme, grab profiteroles from the freezer section and serve with a good chocolate sauce.

Ingredients:

  • Oven French Fries (Frites)
  • 2 top sirloin steaks (3/4 pound each)
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • Mustard Sauce:
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 shallots, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon anchovy paste or worcestershire
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • OPTIONAL:
  • 1 cup chicken stock

Directions:

  1. Make Oven French Fries (Frites). Begin preparing steak while fries are in oven.
  2. Preheat grill or heavy-bottomed skillet on stovetop. Season steaks liberally on both sides with salt and pepper.
  3. In a small sauce pan, melt butter over low heat. Add shallots and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Place butter, shallots, herbs, mustard, vinegar, and anchovy paste in a blender. Process until smooth. Add 1 cup water (or chicken stock), as needed, until thin enough to pour but not soupy. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  4. Grill steaks 3 to 4 minutes per side. Use a probe thermometer to check for doneness: 135°F for medium-rare and 140°F for medium. Transfer to a cutting board and rest 5 minutes.
  5. Thinly slice across the grain and serve with frites and mustard sauce.
