ingredients
2 New York strip steaks, each 4 ounces, trimmed of all visible fat
1 teaspoon trans-free margarine
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 ounces sliced shiitake mushrooms
2 ounces button mushrooms
1/4 teaspoon thyme
1/4 teaspoon rosemary
1/4 cup whiskey
directions
Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler. Lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with cooking spray. Position the cooking rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.
Grill (or broil instead) the steaks until slightly pink on the inside, about 10 minutes each side. Or until a food thermometer indicates 145 degrees F (medium rare), 160 degrees F (medium) or 170 degrees F (well done). Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
In a small saucepan, heat the margarine over medium heat. Add the garlic, mushrooms, thyme and rosemary. Saute lightly until the mushrooms are tender, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and carefully add the whiskey (be careful not to flame). Stir the sauce for another minute.
Top the steaks with the mushrooms sauce and serve immediately.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

The inclusion of the shiitake mushrooms is what set this recipe apart I think. They add a different flavor that I really enjoyed. You could, of course, substitute a different mushroom if you can't find them. One note that if you are using the 4 ounce steaks called for in the recipe, 10 minutes per side is going to make them shoe leather. I cooked the steaks on a cast iron griddle for 3 minutes per side for medium rare with 12 ounce steaks.
