    I normally have ketchup with steak, so I was surprised when I loved this red wine sauce! It looks like a fancy touch, without much fuss. Husband liked it a lot, too.

    I have made this at least four times now, and we absolutely love it. I have made it for three separate dinners with friends and everyone always raves about it because it is delicious and rich and just a special meal. This last time I used some leftover sauce that I had frozen and it was STILL fantastic.

    This is a wonderful and EASY recipe. I've made this dish several times but have made a few minor changes. First, I use 2 cups of wine instead of the 2.5 because there is just too much sauce. Second, I broil the flank steak for 15-20 minutes (until medium rare. Third, I use a Merlot because I like the mellow flavor.

    Great recipe. I served this dish with butternut squash which tasted great with the red wine sauce.. Also, I heated sauce that I had previously frozen and the sauce remained excellent.

    I am only rating the wine sauce part of this recipe. I am an experienced cook, and my sauce was perfect in texture from the reduction, and straining etc...but it was very bitter & bland. I could not fix it, I even tried adding sugar to counter act the bitter. I used a very drinkable cabernet, (Cupcake Cabernet and just don't know why it ended up so bitter. Maybe a lighter cheaper sweeter wine would have done better?

    This was absolutely the best sauce I've ever made. I was looking for good steak recipes, and this one caught my eye since it looked simple and we had most of the ingredients on hand. I was totally blown away, however, by the flavor. The idea that you have to do lots of work for lots of taste has been disproved by this recipe! It took only a half hour or so to make, and my boyfriend loved the sauce so much that once all the food was gone- and there was a lot of it!- he went back and started eating the onions and garlic that had been strained out of the sauce. No kidding, it was that good.

    A serving suggestion: try serving this with mashed potatoes or pureed turnips; they pair nicely with the sauce, and it serves as a better-than-gravy.

    We had the steaks tonight for dinner. One word to describe them....Delicious! Followed the recipe pretty closely except instead of straining the onions etc., I left them in the sauce and put them on top of the steaks along with the wine sauce. WOW! The steaks were mouth watering and just perfect. Thanks Giada for another great recipe.
