Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Rub 4 kangaroo steaks with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Place on a baking tray lined with foil.
- Step 2: Roast the steaks in the oven for 8 minutes for medium rare, turning once halfway through cooking.

- Step 4: Pour in 1 cup red wine and 1/2 cup beef stock, bringing to a simmer. Reduce heat and let the sauce reduce by half, about 10 minutes, until slightly thickened.
- Step 5: Remove rosemary sprigs and whisk in 2 tbsp butter until the sauce is glossy and coats the back of a spoon.
- Step 6: Rest kangaroo steaks for 5 minutes before serving with the red wine rosemary jus spooned over the top.
