Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 beef tenderloin steaks , about 8 ounces, (filet mignon)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns , crushed coarsely
- 1/4 cup cognac
- 1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Add butter to a small cast iron skillet (just bigger than your steaks) on high heat.
- Season steaks all over with salt and pepper, pressing the pepper into the steaks to help it stick.
- Reserve any pepper that doesn't stick.
- Sear the steaks on each side for 3 minutes until browned, then place in oven for 4 minutes for rare, 5-6 minutes for medium, or more for well done.
- Remove from the oven and remove steaks from the pan to a plate you cover with foil to let steaks rest.
- Add the cognac to the pan, stir well and then with a long lighter (like those you'd use for a fireplace), ignite the cognac and let it cook for about 15 seconds until the flames extinguish themselves.
- Stir well then add in the heavy cream and remaining peppercorns that you reserved (if you had any).
- Bring to a boil and stir well until thickened enough to pour like a sauce instead of a soup, about 5-6 minutes.
- Serve over rested steaks.
