Description

This Burgundy wine sauce with portobello mushrooms has plenty of flavor from beef broth and onions and is a perfect topping for grilled steaks.

Ingredients

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2/3 cup chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2/3 cup beef broth
1 cup Burgundy wine
1 pinch dried basil, or to taste
1 pinch dried oregano, or to taste
1 1/2 cups sliced baby portobello mushrooms

Directions

1 Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over low heat; cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot butter-oil mixture until onion is transparent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add flour and slowly pour in beef broth while stirring constantly until flour is smoothly mixed into the broth and vegetables.
2 Stir Burgundy wine into onion-flour mixture; season with basil and oregano. Bring mixture to a simmer; add mushrooms. Cook and stir until sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes.
