Recipe Notes
This is the quick, home version of a sauce that a chef friend of mine served in his restaurant. He used fresh homemade veal stock which added to the richness and would serve this over perfectly grilled sirloin steaks.
The sauce is perfect for beef, pork and chicken. You can use it for any simple cut that has some flavor on its own, like tenderloin or chicken breasts, but would be enhanced by a rich, silky sauce.
