Steak Diane is a 1960s dish that has constantly stayed popular. The beef steak is pan fried and famous for being flambeed. The rib eye is butterflied and then sautéed in butter for a guaranteed juicy steak. The addition of shallots, Madeira wine, Worcestershire sauce, mushrooms and broth takes it to a new level. They give the rib eye so much flavour, aroma and texture that you will know why this is still popular after 50 years. Also, this dish has nothing to do with French Cuisine but was invented in New York during the last century. Diane was the Roman Goddess of the Hunt.
