Ingredients

  • 2 (8 oz) sirloin steaks
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ sweet onion, diced (1 cup)
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup dry white wine
  • 1 (28 oz can) San Marzano tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoon fresh oregano, chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Place steak between 2 pieces of plastic wrap and pound until it is about ½ inch thick. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Add olive oil to large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and sear for about 1 minute per side. Remove the steaks and reduce heat to medium.
  • Add the onion, cooking for about 5 minutes or until translucent. Add garlic, cooking for an additional 30 seconds. Deglaze with the white wine, scraping up any brown bits.
  • Stir in the tomatoes, tomato paste and oregano. Reduce to simmer, cooking for 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add steaks, cooking to desired doneness, 6-10 minutes depending on your preference.

Notes

  • While I use sirloin steaks, you can use any steak you prefer. Just don't use beef meant for stewing or slow cooking.
  • Use a dry white wine you'd be willing to drink like Pinot Grigio or Chardonnay.
  • If you don't have fresh oregano, you can use dried. Just use ⅓rd (2 tsp) of the amount since it is stronger.
  • If you like some heat, add ¼ teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.
