Raisin Whiskey Steak

01Method

1. 1

   Combine the raisins, whiskey, and brown sugar in a resealable plastic bag.

2. 2

   Add the steaks to the bag, turn to coat thoroughly in the marinade, press out any excess air, and seal. Refrigerate for 10 to 30 minutes.

3. 3

   Warm the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

4. 4

   Tip the steaks along with all the marinade into the hot pan.

5. 5

   Once the raisins have swollen and plumped, after about 5 minutes, lift them out with a slotted spoon and set aside.

6. 6

   Continue cooking the steaks until they feel firm to the touch and show just a slight pink at the centre, about 5 to 8 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer registers at least 140°F (60°C).

7. 7

   Plate the steaks and top with the reserved raisins.
