Description: Au poivre sauce is often served with steak or other red meat. Made with peppercorns and cognac mixed with heavy cream, this rich and flavorful sauce is a simple way to add something more to your favorite steak recipe.
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup finely minced shallots
- 6 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon crushed black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup cognac
- 1 ½ cups beef stock
- 6 tablespoons creme fraiche
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions:
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over low heat. Cook and stir shallots in hot butter until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add parsley and saute for 5 minutes; season with pepper and salt.
- Carefully pour cognac over shallot mixture; cook and stir until flames have disappeared, 2 to 3 minutes. Add beef stock and bring to a boil; reduce heat, add creme fraiche, and simmer until sauce is slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir 2 tablespoons butter into sauce until melted.
