Steak Dinner
We owe Grammy and Boppy big time, so we start to work off our debt tonight.
Since Boppy simply does not eat enough red meat, we serve a peppercorn
steak as the centerpiece of tonight's meal.
Menu
- Four Peppercorn Steak with Red Wine Sauce
Quick View: Four Peppercorn Steak with Red Wine Sauce
Ingredients
- 4 11-ounce steaks
- 1 tablespoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon oil
- salt
- 1 tablespoon shallot
- .25 cup wine
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 tablespoons cream
- Bibb Lettuce with Balsamic Vinaigrette
- Baked Potato with Sour Cream and Chives
The debt mentioned is from a babysitting job that went a little awry Saturday. Robin and Chris went to a movie (Two Towers) for the first time since Gosford Park. The movie was excellent, but our daughter came down with a touch of the stomach flu.
Boppy was originally going to charge $10/hour, but we ended up with a $55 tab due to the "sick rate". We hope we're off to a good start here.
