  1. Preheat cast iron skillet or heavy bottom sauté pan to high heat. Add butter and olive oil. Season steaks with salt, pepper and rosemary. Sear steaks in pan over high heat to medium rare. Set aside.
  2. Reduce heat add shallots and garlic, sauté. Do not allow to burn.
  3. Deglaze with wine and stock and reduce to syrup. Stir in balsamic glaze, if necessary, reduce to a sauce consistency. Remove from heat, add chilled butter, stir, taste and adjust seasonings.
  4. Serve sauce over the steaks.

* You can find balsamic reduction at your local grocery store, or you can make your own by simply reducing balsamic vinegar over low heat using a diffuser, until it reaches a syrup consistancy.
