Making steak in a cast iron pan one night I decided to add  white wine.  The steak and wine became a hit.  My second try at making  the steak I realized I was out of the white wine and used a sweet red.  It was as much a hit as the white wine.  The difference between the white and red wine is that the red gives the steak an interesting well cooked color.  I have found that using the wine actually makes the meat very tender and the seasoning and wine together is a hit!

Enjoy and let me know what you think?
