Red Wine-Mustard Pan Sauce

SUBMITTED BY: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson 

"This sauce can be made in minutes as the cooked steaks rest. To make the sauce ahead, leave out the butter. Reheat just before serving, adding water if the sauce has reduced too much, then whisk in the butter. This amount is enough for four steaks."
