Ingredients

- 1 lb Sirloin Steak
- 1/2 cup Irish Whiskey
- 2 tbsp Butter
- 2 tbsp Shallots
- 1 cup Cream
- 2 cups Potatoes
- 1 cup Kale
- to taste Salt
- to taste Pepper
Instructions
- Marinate the Steak: Combine melted butter and Irish whiskey in a bowl. Immerse the sirloin steak in this mixture and let it marinate for at least 3 hours.
- Sear the Steak: Preheat a cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated steak for about 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Bake the Steak: Transfer the seared steaks to a preheated oven at 350°F. Bake for approximately 10 minutes until desired doneness.
- Prepare Colcannon: Boil the potatoes until tender, then mash with cooked kale, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
- Make the Whiskey Cream Sauce: In the same pan, sauté shallots until translucent, deglaze with whiskey, and stir in the cream, simmering until thickened.
- Serve: Plate the steak on a bed of colcannon and drizzle with whiskey cream sauce. Serve immediately.
Notes
Allow the steak to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing for juiciness. Use russet potatoes for a fluffy mash.
