INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
    • 🥩 2 (6 ounce) (1 1/4-inch-thick) tenderloin steaks

  • Sauce and Flavors

    • 🧈 2 tablespoons butter
    • 🧅 1 tablespoon minced shallot
    • 2 tablespoons cognac
    • 🍷 2 tablespoons red wine
    • ¼ cup beef broth
    • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

STEPS

1

Crack peppercorns in a mortar or pestle or with a rolling pin. Press cracked peppercorns into steaks.

2

Heat butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks; cook, turning with tongs, until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium and cook steaks, turning often, until they begin to firm up and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to a plate and cover to keep warm.

3

Stir shallot into the skillet. Pour in cognac and red wine; simmer, stirring constantly, until reduced, about 2 minutes.

4

Pour in beef broth and simmer, scraping browned bits off the bottom of the skillet, until sauce is smooth, about 2 minutes. Stir in cream; cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes.

5

Pour cream sauce over steaks.
