Description

Broiled to juicy perfection, the top sirloin steak is the star of this dish, but it’s the sautéed Maitake and Shiitake mushrooms that steal the show. Monterey® Maitake Mushrooms add delicate, feathery texture and subtle earthiness, while Shiitake mushrooms bring a bold, savory depth. Both are sautéed in butter with fresh thyme and oregano, creating a rich, herbaceous topping that complements the tender steak beautifully. Finished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs, this dish is simple but elegant.

  • 5 Tbsp. unsalted butter, divided
