Ingredient Substitution Guide

directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Step 2

Put foil wrapped potatoes into oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until tender.
Whisk together sour cream, jalapeno and lime juice and season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add oil, season steaks with salt and pepper and when the oil just starts to smoke add steaks. Sear them for 4 minutes per side and then place them into the oven for an additional 5 minutes or until steaks are cooked to medium-rare. Take steaks out of skillet and keep warm until ready to serve.

Step 4

Put the skillet back on medium heat and when it’s hot, add shallots. Stir them and cook until they begin to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Turn heat to medium-high and deglaze the pan with the red wine scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Add the rosemary, brandy and then stock and simmer until reduced slightly. Whisk in the cream and let reduce until thickened. Remove the rosemary and season to taste.

Step 5

Place a bison steak on each of 4 plates and ladle on some gravy. Cut off the top of each baked potato and open it up. Top with a dallop of jalapeno sour cream and serve with the steaks.
