Steak Tips Au Poivre

Submitted by Chilicat

"This is a 30-Minute recipe from Cook's Country. We had this for dinner with potatoes au gratin (from the same Cook's Country issue) and recipe #357594. The sauce goes great with just about anything! Make sure you don't overcook the beef - 7 minutes on medium-high heat was just right for a perfect medium rare."

This was very easy to make and was outstanding. I made wasabi mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus. We will be making this again that is for sure!
