Ostrich with Herbes de Provence and Garlic
St. Francis Sonoma County Claret
Recipe By: Elise Lalor  

When I discovered ostrich is lower in fat and cholesterol than chicken, and higher in protein, I wanted to try it. My family enjoys meals that are low in fat and high in flavor. Ostrich is very delicious and reminds me of a very juicy cut of beef. I often serve this dish with baked, seasoned cherry tomatoes, sprinkled St. Francis Sonoma County Claret. The heart-healthy benefits of red wine makes St. Francis Sonoma County Claret and my ostrich dish a match made in heaven.

8 (8-ounce) ostrich steaks    
1/4 cup minced garlic    
1/4 cup olive oil    
1 tablespoon Herbes de Provence    
Salt and pepper    

In a large baking dish, mix garlic, oil, and herbs; add ostrich steaks, coating well with marinade. Cover and refrigerate overnight (or 2 to 3 hours at least).

Heat grill to medium high. Remove steaks from marinade and season with salt and pepper. Grill about 3 minutes per inch of thickness for rare to medium-rare. Transfer grilled steaks to a cutting board and allow to rest 5 minutes, then slice into thin slices. Serve with St. Francis Sonoma County Claret.
