Seared Top Sirloin Steaks with Beurre Noisette
over Tangy Red Kale Orzo
Juicy slices of seared steaks are even more succulent with a brown butter topping—and the bonus is that it’s surprisingly easy to make. Beurre noisette foams up to a sweet and nutty brown in the pan fond left from cooking the beef. With a splish splash of wine vinegar, garlic and herbes de Provence, it’s dripping with deliciousness. Serve the steaks over tangy orzo pasta interwoven with sautéed red kale.

Preparation
Boil the orzo
Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add the orzo and boil, 9 to 10 min., until just tender. Drain and rinse. Return to the pot and toss with a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking. Keep warm.
Cook the steaks
Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry with paper towel and rub with a drizzle of oil; season with ½ the herbes de Provence and S&P. In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the steaks* and cook, 3 to 5 min. per side, until cooked as desired (to ensure a consistent temperature throughout, turn over at least twice). Transfer to a cutting board, leaving any browned bits in the pan. Reserve the pan. Let rest for 5 min. before slicing against the grain.
Sauté the kale
Meanwhile, remove the kale leaves from the stems; thinly slice the leaves. In a second medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the kale, 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Sauté, 2 to 3 min., until the kale has wilted and the water has evaporated. Add ½ the garlic and ⅔ of the vinegar. Sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Transfer to the pot of orzo; stir well.
Make the brown butter
In the reserved pan, heat 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) on medium. Cook, swirling the pan often, 2 to 3 min., until the butter foams and turns a deep golden brown. Add the remaining vinegar, garlic and herbes de Provence, and S&P. Cook, scraping up any browned bits, 1 to 2 min., until fragrant.
Finish & serve
To the pot of orzo and kale, add the brown butter; stir well. Divide the orzo between your plates. Top with the steaks. Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking beef to a minimum internal temperature of 63°C.
