Onion Stuffed Sirloin with Mushroom Saute
2 servings
Prep: 20 minutes
Grill: 14 minutes

Ingredients
1/2 of a small onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1/8 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning or pepper
1 8-ounce boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut 1-1/2 inches thick
3/4 cup sliced fresh shiitake or other mushrooms
1 tablespoon margarine or butter
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon instant beef bouillon granules
1 tablespoon dry red or white wine

Directions

1. For stuffing, in a small saucepan cook the onion and garlic
in margarine or butter until onion is tender but not brown.
Remove from heat. Stir in the lemon-pepper seasoning or pepper.
Set aside.

2. Make a pocket in the steak by cutting a deep horizontal slit.
Spoon the stuffing into the pocket. If necessary, secure opening
of the pocket with a wooden toothpick.

3. To grill, place steak on the rack of an uncovered grill.
Grill directly over medium-hot coals to desired doneness,
turning once. (Allow 14 to 18 minutes for rare, 18 to 22
minutes for medium, or 24 to 28 minutes for well-done).

4. Or, to broil, place steak on the unheated rack of a broiler
pan. Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat to desired doneness,
turning once. (Allow 14 to 18 minutes for rare, 19 to 22 minutes
for medium, or 23 to 28 minutes for well-done).

5. Meanwhile, for mushroom sauce, in a small saucepan cook the
mushrooms in margarine or butter until tender. In a small bowl
stir together the cornstarch, Worcestershire sauce, bouillon
granules, and 1/2 cup water. Carefully add to the saucepan.
Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for
1 minute more. Stir in wine. To serve, cut steak in half.
Transfer steak halves to individual plates. Pour sauce over
steak. Makes 2 servings.

Menu Suggestion: Grill new potatoes to round out the meal.
