Steak marsala. When Meat's Raised Right, It Tastes Better Than Anything You've Ever Had. It is easy to prepare, quite impressive and loaded with complex flavors and textures! When my mom and I go to Carrabba's for dinner, she orders the Marsala topped Filet and I order the Shrimp Scampi topped Filet.
He sets the table and I prepare the meal.
I marinate the steak and he grills.
The Marsala Wine sauce was an afterthought.

Steak marsala step by step
- Preheat oven to 300°.
- Peel and dice potatoes, and place in boiling water until soft. Drain when softened hold in pot to preserve heat..
- Meanwhile, place half and half and butter into small sauce pan over low heat. Do not let boil, just very low simmer until butter is melted. Remove from heat when combined.
- Preheat cast iron skillet over medium high heat, and season filets generously with salt and pepper. I prefer kosher salt coarse grind for better flavor and fresh cracked pepper.
- Add 2 tbsp of olive oil to skillet and when shimmering, place filets in and sear for 3 minutes on one side. Check for nice crust before turning over.
- When filet has been turned over, place skillet into preheated oven for 5 minutes for med rare..
- Drain potatoes and mash, slowly adding milk and butter mixture to desired consistency. Do not over mix as this will make your mash feel pasty. Add parmesean at end and stir in..
- Heat olive oil in saute pan with minced garlic over medium heat. Saute for 2 minutes and add spinach. Toss until all leaves are coated and wilted nicely.
- Remove steaks from skillet and cover with foil to allow resting..
- In same skillet, add oil, mushrooms, and scrape up and meaty bits. Cook mushrooms for 3 minutes, add madiera and allow to reduce 3 minutes over high heat. When reduced, add beef stock x and reduce for 5 minutes. Add 1 to 2 pats of butter at end to brighten sauce..

- Potatoes on bottom, steak on top, marsala sauce over all, and top steak with wilted spinach. Enjoy!!!.
So this recipe is a happy accident. I used Marsala instead of the brandy that most steak Diane recipes require. This easy to make Mushroom Marsala Cream Sauce is a great way to effortlessly elevate any dish! Luxuriously rich, creamy, slightly sweet and perfectly savory, you can serve these mushrooms over steak, chicken, pork or pasta and transform a weeknight meal into something special! Remove from heat and keep warm, tenting with aluminum foil.
