Pepper Steak

Spread peppercorns on a flat work surface; press into both sides of steaks in an even layer. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until hot. Cook steaks for five minutes per side for medium rare; longer for more thoroughly cooked meat. Remove steaks from the skillet; keep warm. Add the heavy cream, Cognac and salt to the skillet. Bring mixture to a boil, stirring; loosen browned bits from bottom of skillet. Lower heat and simmer sauce for about two minutes or until slightly thickened. Pour sauce over steaks and serve at once.

 

Suggestion: Served with a fresh green vegetable, such as asparagus (as pictured above) or green beans.
