Sirloin Steaks with Mustard Sauce and Horseradish Mashed Potatoes

Recipe Brought to you by FoodFit

This recipe serves: 4
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 40 minutes

For the potatoes:
4 large potatoes (Idaho or russet)
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup non-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons horseradish, or to taste
salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper

For the sirloin steaks:
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 top sirloin steaks, about 4 ounces each
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup red wine
1/2 cup low-sodium beef broth
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup non-fat sour cream

For the potatoes: Peel the potatoes and cut them in half. Place them in a
pot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat and simmer
until the potatoes are tender when pricked with a fork, about 30 minutes
(depending on the size of the potatoes). Drain. Bring the chicken broth to
a boil, and turn down to a simmer. Mash the potatoes with a potato masher
or fork, or use a food mill. Stir in the sour cream. Slowly add the stock
until the desired consistency is reached. Add the horseradish, salt and
pepper to taste. Keep warm while you cook the steaks.

For the sirloin steaks: Heat the olive oil over high heat in a skillet
large enough to accommodate all of the steaks in a single layer. Season
the steaks with salt and pepper and sear them in the hot skillet on both
sides to the desired doneness, about 2 to 3 minutes per side for medium
rare. Remove the skillet from the heat, transfer the steaks to a plate and
keep warm while you make the sauce. Add the shallots and garlic to the
pan, return the pan to medium heat and cook for 15 seconds. Add the red
wine and stir to remove any caramelized bits that are stuck to the pan.
Add the beef broth and simmer until it has reduced by half, about 2
minutes. Whisk in the Dijon mustard and sour cream. Spoon the sauce over
the steaks and serve with mashed potatoes.
