Grilled Steak with Whiskey Dijon BBQ Sauce
Cooking whiskey removes the boozy taste, but leaves the sweet oaky flavor behind, which lends itself beautifully to tender grilled skirt steak
4 servings
Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients
1/2 cup reduced-sodium beef broth or chicken broth
3 tablespoons whiskey
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
1 large shallot, finely chopped
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
1-1 1/4 pounds skirt steak (see Note), trimmed and cut into 4 portions
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preparation
Preheat grill to medium-high. (No grill? See Broiler Variation.)
Combine broth, whiskey, mustard, brown sugar, shallot, Worcestershire and thyme in a small saucepan; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a lively simmer and cook, stirring frequently, until reduced to about 1/2 cup, 6 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
Sprinkle steaks with pepper and salt. Grill the steak 1 1/2 to 3 minutes per side for medium. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes. Serve the steak with the sauce.
