This was pretty good! I've actually never pan seared a steak before. The recipe called for beef tenderloin steaks, but I unfortunately couldn't find any so I used chuck tender beef. (Is that the same thing?) It cooked a little unusually I thought - when I turned it the first time in the pan, the steaks were a little "concave", if you will. Anyway, the combination with the roasted red pepper sauce was a nice new taste!
I served the steaks with loaded baked potatoes. Steak and potatoes, how can you go wrong?
Side note: In hindsight, this was stupid, but just in case anyone doesn't think about it either - To make the sauce, you use a little jar of roasted red peppers and you need to drain them first. So I walk over to the sink, hold back the peppers with my hand, and pour out the liquid. A minute later my hand is burning! So moral of the story, use a strainer when you drain these, not your hand!
For some reason, I thought the steaks looked a little like big portabella mushrooms.
