Ingredients
Directions
- Mash peppercorns with a mallet or the back of a heavy pan.
- Press each side of the fillets into the cracked peppercorns and let the beef stand about an hour to absorb the flavor.
- Heat the butter and add the beef and sear about 8 minutes per side for rare, 10 for medium, 12 for well done.
- Remove the steaks to a platter and allow to rest.
- Add cognac to the pan and heat for just a few seconds and then set ablaze.
- Option 1: Boil the liquid about a minute then stir in additional butter, salt and cream.
- Bring to a boil, reduce heat, add mushrooms and saute till mushrooms are soft.
- Pour over fillets and sprinkle with parsley.
- Option 2: Skip the cream (but it's better with).
