Steak Tips With Red Wine Sauce

1. 1

   Pat steak tips dry with paper towels and season with salt & pepper. Heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add steak tips and cook until well browned all over and meat registers 125 degrees (for medium-rare), 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to plate and tent loosely with foil.

2. 2

   Add 1 TBL butter to now-empty skillet and melt over medium heat. Add shallot and cook until softened, about 2 mintues. Add wine and sugar and simmer until nearly evaporated, about 3 minutes. Add broth and any accumulated steak juice from plate and simmer until liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup, about 3 minutes.

3. 3

   Off heat, whisk in remaining 3 TBL butter and thyme. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Return steak tips to skillet and toss with sauce.
