Instructions

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter and sauté the finely chopped shallot and minced garlic until they become fragrant and translucent.
Add the red wine to the saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer. Let the wine reduce by half, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes.
Whisk in the all-purpose flour and cook for another minute until the sauce thickens slightly.
Pour in the beef or chicken broth and add the fresh thyme sprig. Continue simmering the sauce for an additional 10 minutes until it reaches a velvety consistency.
Remove the thyme sprig, and whisk in the remaining tablespoon of unsalted butter until the sauce is smooth and glossy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Strain the Red Wine Sauce through a fine mesh strainer to remove any solids, and it's now ready to be served over your favorite dishes.
