This delicious recipe is perfect for company, and very quick and easy to make with only five ingredients.

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup chopped dried apricots
  • 3 tablespoons apricot preserves
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 4 New York strip steaks or ribeye steaks
  • 2 tsp. cracked black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil

Preparation:

In small saucepan, combine broth, juice and apricots. Cook until mixture is reduced and thickened, about 7-10 minutes. Add apricot preserves and salt and continue cooking over very low heat, stirring frequently. When you start grilling steaks, remove sauce from heat.

Prepare and preheat grill. Press the pepper firmly into each side of the steaks (1/4 teaspoon for each side). Brush grill rack with oil so steaks don't stick. Grill steaks 6" from medium coals for 8-10 minutes, turning once, until medium doneness. Place on serving platter and pour warm apricot mixture over. Serves 4
