Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 8 ounces shallots, sliced (about 2 cups)
  • 1 6-ounce package sliced mushrooms
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 750-ml bottle Pinot Noir or other dry red wine
  • 1 14-ounce can low-salt chicken broth
  • 1 14-ounce can beef broth
  • 2 fresh thyme sprigs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
  • 1 Turkish bay leaf
  • 1 tablespoon butter, room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add shallots and mushrooms; sauté until tender, about 12 minutes. Sprinkle sugar over; sauté until mixture is deep brown, about 4 minutes longer. Add vinegar; stir until liquid evaporates, about 1 minute. Add wine; boil until reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Add both broths, thyme, peppercorns, and bay leaf; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer uncovered 35 minutes to blend flavors, stirring occasionally.
  2. Strain sauce through fine strainer into small saucepan; discard solids. Mix butter and flour in small bowl. Bring sauce to simmer over medium-high heat; gradually whisk in flour mixture. Cook until sauce is reduced to 1 1/4 cups, about 5 minutes. (Sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Rewarm over medium heat.)
