New York Strip Steak With Whiskey-Mushroom Sauce

Ingredients

• 2 (8 ounce)  New York strip steaks
• 1 teaspoon trans-fat free margarine
• 3 garlic cloves, chopped
• 2 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms
• 2 ounces sliced button mushrooms
• 1/4 teaspoon thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon rosemary
• 1/4 cup whiskey

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler. Away from the heat source, lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with cooking spray. Position the cooking rack 4-6 inches from the heat source.

2. 2

   Grill or broil the steaks until slightly pink on the inside, about 10 minutes each side. A food thermometer will read 145 for medium rare. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

3. 3

   In a small saucepan, heat the margarine over medium heat. Add the garlic, mushrooms, thyme and rosemary. Saute lightly until the mushrooms are tender, about 1-2 minutes.

4. 4

   Remove from the heat and carefully add the whiskey (careful not to flame). Stir the sauce for another minute. Top the steaks with the mushroom sauce and serve immediately.
