Filet Mignon with Creamy Peppercorn Brandy Sauce

 

Ingredients:

 8 ounce fillet mignon, (4 of these)

2 tablespoon minced shallots

1 teaspoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon cracked peppercorns

4 tablespoon brand,

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup demi-glace,  if you don’t know what this is, you can buy it, but you can look it up for a recipe on Google, but it’s easier to buy premade from a store.  This is where I buy mine----->  http://www.morethangourmet.com/ 

1 tablespoon butter

salt to taste.

  

Preparation:

 Season the fillet mignon and broil them to the desired doneness.

In the mean time, heat the butter in a skillet and saute the shallots and garli****il soft.

Deglaze with the brandy, but make sure to keep your face away from the skillet in case it catches fire.

 Add the peppercorns, cream and demi-glace and reduce the sauce. Finish the fillet mignon in the skillet with the sauce for 1-2 minutes and serve with the peppercorn and brandy sauce on top.

I will live vicariously until solids aren't a problem.  Please let me know when you eat this.  I'll need to get out my pail for the drool.  It looks fabulous!
