Stove Top Sirloin Steak Marsala

Tuesday, July 14, 2020
Stove Top Sirloin Steak Marsala is one of my favorite comfort foods and the easiest one-pan meal.

I use lesser-cut meat that is economical and it takes the place of veal in this classic Italian-style Marsala dish.

In addition, we add mushrooms to this wonderful beefy version of delicious dry marsala sauce since sweet marsala is usually used more in Italian desserts and keep both versions on hand.

Cooked to your personal preference from medium-rare to well done (that's your choice), slow cooking will still make it very tender meat using sirloin steak even well done.

When I was growing up, I would come home from school and the aroma was just mouth-watering when that door opened.

No matter what mom used for meat, the sauce was my favorite part and perfect to sop up a nice piece of Tuscan Garlic Bread.

Some of our favorites with Marsala in it are this Easy Chicken Marsala Sauce, Slow Cooker Rump Roast Marsala, Rice Marsala Almondine, and even these delicious desserts like this Cannoli Pie, have it in!

During the busy holiday season, easy recipe meals are a must.

There are so many days that I need quick, tasty comfort foods, like this one.

The recipe is super easy and perfect for on-the-go busy schedules.

Put everything on the stovetop, using a lesser cut of meat that will be fork-tender as it simmers in a delectable wine sauce, what more can I say other than YUM!!

Easy Recipes



I love all-in-one pan meal, they are so easy, and when you're in a hurry with just a few pantry ingredients on hand you can make what tastes like a gourmet meal!


The slow simmer in that delicious Steak Marsala Sauce made any inexpensive cut of meat tender so use any kind you prefer, I even use a London broil when on sale.


As the years have passed, I will always remember that trick of low and slow cooking for tougher cuts of meat.


I tend to saute the meat first and on a busy day, throw everything in the slow cooker and it's a fork-tender delight steak marsala for over rice or mashed potatoes.

    1. The best is Lombardi if you can find it or imported from Sicily. The one I had here is dry and at a specialty wine store but they didnt have it Columbia Dry it was very good.

  26. I made this last night. Mistake #1: Used no salt added beef broth and didn't add salt (Sodium restricted diet). Tasted a bit flat but Mrs. Dash helped! Mistake #2: Put the lid on the skillet and cooked for a couple of hours on low. Too thin! Took the lid off and cooked for another hour but still too watery. (all my bad). Question: Do you add the wine with the beef broth? Instructions didn't say but I added with the broth. Maybe too much broth? Hubby loved it and it was good, despite the thin sauce. (He added salt to his).

  27. No mistake the difference is preferences. The sauce get thick from simmering sounds like too much broth. The other thing that would have saved the sauce is adding wondra flour just a teaspoon in water and add to thicken or cornstarch. As far as the salt restrictions there you did great with the substitutes. I do not cover mine.
