This Chaliapin Steak recipe features marinated sirloin steaks served with a rich red wine gravy and caramelized onions. The marinade infuses flavor, while the quick cooking method ensures a tender steak, served over a bed of rice with pickled plum paste and sliced green onions. An exquisite dish inspired by anime, perfect for two servings.
1: Marinate the steak with diced onion for 30 minutes. Remove onions and season the steak with salt and pepper.
2: Heat a pan on medium-high and add oil. Sear the steaks for 2 1/2 minutes, then flip and add butter, cooking for another 2 minutes. Remove steaks and let them rest.
3: In the same pan, turn heat down to medium and add red wine, cooking until it softly sizzles (about 2 minutes).
4: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce and cornstarch to create a slurry, then add to the pan and cook for 1 minute until thickened.
5: For the caramelized onion, heat a clean pan on medium, add steak drippings, butter, and reserved onions, cooking until softened and caramelized (about 9 minutes).
6: For assembly, combine cooked rice with the pickled plum paste, then layer it with the steak, red wine gravy, caramelized onions, and sliced green onions.
