Description

Ingredients

• 1 loaf French baguette
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 pound sirloin tips, cut into bite size pieces
• 1 cup crumbled blue cheese
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 cup balsamic vinegar
• salt and pepper
• fresh herbs for garnish

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Slice baguette into 1/2 inch slices on the diagonal.
• Melt the butter in a small dish and brush each piece of bread.
• Smash 1-2 cloves of garlic and rub on the bread.
• Place bread on a baking sheet and toast for 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
• Pour balsamic vinegar into a small sauce pot, bring to a boil then reduce to a low simmer until vinegar has halved and thickened. It will coat the back of a spoon when done. Turn off heat and set aside.
• Place blue cheese, milk, 1 smashed clove of garlic, salt and pepper in a small sauce pot and bring to a high simmer, stirring frequently until blue cheese is melted and smooth. Turn off heat and set aside.
• Heat a greased grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Season steak tips with salt and pepper and grill 1-2 minutes per side for rare to medium-rare.
• To assemble the crostini, spread the blue cheese sauce on the toasted bread, top with a piece of steak, drizzle with the balsamic reduction and top with fresh herbs.
