45 minutes
Breton-style entrecôte is an exquisite dish of French cuisine that combines simplicity in preparation with magnificent flavor. Its roots trace back to Brittany, a region known for its love of rich, aromatic dishes. Tender beef entrecôte is first marinated in vegetable oil with salt and pepper, then seared to a golden crust while retaining juiciness inside. The final touch is fragrant green oil with onion and parsley that adds depth to the meat's flavor. The entrecôte is served with meat juice and mashed potatoes, creating a harmonious blend of textures and aromas. This dish is perfect for a cozy dinner or festive gathering, reminding one of the traditions of French gastronomy.
