How to Make Entrecotes with Dried Apricot

Entrecote is a flat slice of meat on a rib. It is usually a beef steak sliced from between the rib of a rib roast cut and is considered a very valuable cut of meat. Traditionally, entrecotes are fried on both sides on a red hot frying pan. But there are other ways, too. For example, it’s great taste if you first marinate entrecotes in the mixture of dry white wine, extra virgin olive oil and flavorful herbs and then roast it with dried apricots and onion.
