Method

Cook carrots in water until tender, about 8 minutes; drain. While carrots cook, sprinkle beef with salt and pepper. Melt 3 tbsp of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute beef until brown on all sides but still pink in center. Remove beef from skillet. Melt remaining butter in same skillet, add vegetables and saute for 5 minutes. Add thyme, cooking wine and beef broth to skillet, then increase heat and boil until reduced to 2 cups, scraping browned bits; allow about 20-25 minutes. Return beef and carrots to skillet; cook 1 minute to blend flavors. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with hot noodles or rice.

 

Notes: I prefer the rice; it makes it more hearty.
