Madeira Wine Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Chop the onions and fry in butter, once softened, add the mushrooms, until golden brown. Sprinkle in the flour, gradually add warmed stock and mix well. Cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the Madeira in the last 5 minutes of cooking. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with roast meat or steak.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, add the grapeseed oil. Allow the oil to smoke slightly. Season each pork chop with salt and pepper, to taste, and add to the pan. Sear on each side for 2 minutes. Once nicely browned on each side, transfer the chops to a sheet pan with a rack and bake in the oven for an additional 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the chops from the oven to a serving platter. Reserve the pan for the Madeira Sauce.
• In same skillet that the chops were seared, add 1 tablespoon of the butter, the shallots, garlic, and the mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat until slightly caramelized. Add flour and mix to a paste. Add the Madeira wine and deglaze the pan. Lower the heat, add the beef broth and simmer for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and mix in the remaining butter and the fresh herbs. Once the butter has melted, pour the sauce over the pork chops and serve.

Steps:

• Sprinkle each chicken breast liberally with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken until browned, 4 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the same skillet over medium-high heat and saute the mushrooms until softened, 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook 1 minute before adding the beef broth and thyme. Bring the sauce to a simmer and let reduce by three-quarters, about 15 minutes. The sauce should have thickened and turned a rich dark brown. Just as the sauce is almost done, return the chicken to the pan and finish cooking through to 165 degrees F, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve the chicken with the mushrooms and Madeira sauce and garnish with fresh thyme.

Steps:

• Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter and when it is gently bubbling, add the flour, stirring constantly until brown and smooth.
• Add beef stock and wine - keep stirring and stir until thickened. Takes about 15 minutes over medium heat.(This step is more fun while you are sipping some of the Madeira wine that you are using in your recipe).
• In a separate pan, saute mushrooms in 4 tablespoons of butter until "fork tender." Add these to the sauce.
• Serve warm over beef tenderloins, beef kabobs, etc.

Steps:

• For brown chicken stock:
• Heat heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add chicken wings to pot and sauté until deep brown, about 10 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, remove chicken wings from pot; transfer to large bowl. Add onion and carrots to drippings in pot; sauté until brown, about 10 minutes. Return chicken wings to pot. Add stock and wine and simmer, covered, 1 1/2 hours. Strain stock, discarding solids. (Stock can be prepared up to 2 days ahead. Cool slightly. Refrigerate uncovered until cool, then cover and chill.)
• For chicken:
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place 2 sage leaves under skin of each chicken breast and thigh. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add chicken breasts and thighs and sauté until brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer chicken thighs to large rimmed baking sheet. Roast 10 minutes. Add breasts to baking sheet and continue roasting chicken until cooked through, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, prepare sauce:
• Discard fat from skillet. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in same skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallots and sauté 2 minutes. Add Madeira and bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Add stock, thyme, and sage to skillet and bring to boil. Add carrots and cook over high heat until crisp-tender, about 8 minutes. Add peas; simmer until sauce is slightly reduced, about 10 minutes. Whisk remaining 4 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, into sauce. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Serve chicken with sauce.

Steps:

• Gradually mix the madeira into the flour until smooth. Heat the stock in a pan, then pour in the flour mixture and mustard, stirring until thickened. Chill until ready to serve, covering the surface with cling film to stop a skin forming. On the day, reheat in a pan with the turkey juices until bubbling.

Steps:

• In same skillet that the chops were seared, add 1 tablespoon of the butter, the shallots, garlic, and the mushrooms. Cook over medium-high heat until slightly caramelized. Add flour and mix to a paste. Add the Madeira wine and deglaze the pan. Lower the heat, add the beef broth and simmer for a few minutes. Remove from the heat and mix in the remaining butter and the fresh herbs

Steps:

• To make the goose:
• Remove excess skin, fat and quills from goose. Carefully lower goose into large pot of boiling water. Boil 1 minute. Remove from water. Pat dry. Place on rack in large pan. Chill uncovered 2 days.
• Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add goose neck; cook until brown, turning once, about 5 minutes. Add slice shallots; sauté until tender, about 4 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups Madeira and 1 orange. Boil until reduced by 1/3, scraping up browned bits, about 3 minutes. Add broth and juice. Boil until reduced to 2 cups liquid, about 45 minutes. Strain sauce into saucepan. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Chill.)
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Pierce goose skin (not meat) all over with fork. Place halved shallots and remaining 3 oranges in cavity of goose. Tie leg together to hold shape. Season with salt and pepper. Place goose, breast side down, on rack in roasting pan. Roast 1 1/2 hours.
• Transfer goose to platter. Pour off fat from pan. Place goose, breast side up, on rack in pan. Roast until thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 180°F. about 1 hour 15 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450°F. Roast goose until golden, about 10 minutes. Transfer to platter.
• Pour off all fat from pan, leaving browned bits in pan. Pour 1/3 cup Madeira into pan. Gently heat pan while scraping up browned bits. Pour mixture into sauce. Dissolve cornstarch in remaining 2 tablespoons Madeira. Whisk into sauce. Boil until thickened to sauce consistency, about 7 minutes. Stir in 2 tablespoons honey. Season to taste with more honey, salt and pepper.
• To make the shallots:
• Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots; sauté until golden, about 10 minutes. Stir in Madeira, broth and honey. Simmer until shallots are tender and liquid is reduced to glaze, about 1 hour 10 minutes. (Glazed shallots can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over low heat, stirring often, before serving.)
• Carve goose. Arrange slices on plates. Top with Madeira-glazed Shallots and sauce and serve.

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add shallots, and cook until translucent. Add wine, and cook until liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add glace de viande and stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, in a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in heavy cream. Whisk into sauce, and cook, stirring, until sauce thickens, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove from heat, and pass through a sieve. Keep warm in a double boiler, or a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water.
