Instructions
Combine mustard, honey, horseradish, mint, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl; whisk well.
Let mustard mixture sit at room temperature to allow flavors to meld (about 15 minutes).
Combine remaining salt and pepper in a shallow dish; press both sides of steaks into mixture.
Heat oil in a nonstick pan over high heat until oil begins to shimmer.
Place steak in pan; cook until a crust has formed (about 4-5 minutes). Turn steaks over; continue cooking until desired degree of doneness (about 3 minutes for rare, 4 minutes for medium-rare, and 5 minutes for medium).
Remove steaks from pan; let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Serve steaks with mustard sauce.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Steak on the menu? Try pairing with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. One wine you could try is GEN5 Merlot. It has 4.4 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 12 dollars.
