    Seared Steaks with Caramelized Onions & Gorgonzola

    4 servings

    Total Time: 30 minutes

    Ingredients

    2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
    2 large onions, sliced (about 4 cups)
    1 tablespoon brown sugar
    1/2 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
    1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
    1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
    1 pound beef tenderloin (filet mignon) or sirloin steak, 1-1 1/4 inches thick, trimmed and cut into 4 steaks
    1/4 cup crumbled Gorgonzola or blue cheese

    Preparation

    Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and brown sugar and cook, stirring often, until the onions are very tender and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add broth, vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the liquid has almost evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer the onions to a bowl; cover to keep warm. Clean and dry the pan.
    Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper on both sides of each steak. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn them over and top with cheese. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook until the cheese is melted and the steaks are cooked to desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes for medium-rare. Serve the steaks with the caramelized onions.
