American Wagyu Hanger Steak w/ Onion Soubise and Tamarind Reduction

By: Emmanuel Baiden

Chef Emmanuel Baiden (@mannyeats) was excited to create a recipe with our American Wagyu hanger steak. He came up with a stellar preparation.

Chef Manny says, "Hanger steak is easily my favorite cuts of beef but American Wagyu from Snake River Farms takes hanger to the next level. Onion soubise is a classic French sauce that pairs well with steak and other roasted meats. This version brings some herbaceous notes with tarragon from the garden. Silky, smooth and creamy, it’s the perfect pairing to a Wagyu hanger steak."
