Best 5 Steak Au Poivre With Green Peppercorns Recipes

STEAK AU POIVRE WITH A MUSHROOM, GREEN PEPPERCORN, AND DIJON SAUCE AND POMMES FRITES WITH A GARLIC AIOLI DIPPING SAUCE AND A FRESH VEGETABLE RELISH

Steps:

• Use a meat mallet to slightly reduce the thickness of each steak. Spread both sides of each steak with a thin coating of Dijon mustard. Sprinkle with salt and cover both sides with coarsely ground black pepper. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat and cook the steaks 3 to 4 minutes on each side. The steaks should be rare at this point. Set them aside and lightly cover them so they stay warm. Do not wash out the pan.
• Mushroom, Green Peppercorn and Dijon sauce: Heat the butter in a medium sized saute pan over medium-high heat and saute the garlic and shallots for approximately 1 minute. Add the mushrooms, raise the heat to high, and cook for an additional 5 minutes. Add beef stock, cream, and mustard, and then reduce the sauce by 1/2. Once the sauce is made, reheat the skillet, in which the steaks were cooked, to medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook for another 2 minutes on each side for a medium-rare steak. Transfer them to dinner plates, which have been coated with the mushroom Dijon sauce. Once you plate the steaks, spoon more of the sauce on top of each steak. Serve with Pommes Frites, Aioli, and Vegetable Relish.
• Thoroughly clean the outer surface of the russets and peel the skin using a vegetable peeler. Slice the potatoes lengthwise into thick strips. Pour enough vegetable oil in a pot to cover the potato slices. Once the oil is hot, carefully put the potato strips into the pot and fry them until they are brown and crispy. Remove the potatoes from the pot and drain the excess oil onto paper towels. Salt and pepper, to taste, while the potatoes are still hot. Serve with a fresh Garlic Aioli Dipping Sauce.
• Finely mince 1 or 2 cloves of garlic in a food processor. Add in the egg yolks and then squeeze the juice from a couple of lemons into the processor bowl. Blend the ingredients together until they fully integrate. While the mixture processes, slowly drizzle in olive oil until the sauce emulsifies.
• Dice all of the ingredients and combine them in a medium sized bowl. Stir the diced vegetables together, until they are fully integrated.

STEAK AU POIVRE (FILET IN GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the filets generously with salt.
• Heat a medium cast-iron skillet over high heat until it starts to smoke slightly. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pan. Sear the filets on both sides until browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. Cook in the oven until desired doneness, about 7 minutes for medium rare.
• Meanwhile, return the skillet to medium heat. Add the heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, green peppercorns and bouillon cube. Bring to a simmer and let reduce by about half, about 2 minutes. Add the cognac and porcini powder and let reduce again for 1 minute.
• Remove the beef from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Cut the filets across the grain into 2-inch pieces and top with the au poivre sauce, thyme sprigs and a pinch of coarse salt.

STEAK AU POIVRE

Steps:

• Let steak sit at room temperature 30 minutes. Place peppercorns in a plastic bag and lightly crush with a rolling pin or meat mallet. Lightly brush steak with oil and season generously with kosher salt. Coat both sides with peppercorns, pressing to adhere. Let stand 15 minutes.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high until very hot, 3 to 4 minutes. Swirl in oil. Add steak and cook, flipping once, until a thermometer reads 130°F (for medium-rare), 10 to 12 minutes total. Sear fat cap to finish, 1 to 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate; tent with foil. Let rest 15 minutes before slicing so the juices redistribute. Remove skillet from heat and let cool slightly.
• While steak is resting, wipe skillet clean. Add butter and shallot to skillet and cook over medium, stirring often, until shallot softens, 1 to 2 minutes. Carefully add cognac and cook, scraping browned bits from pan, until almost evaporated, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add Worcestershire, broth and any accumulated steak juices from plate. Reduce sauce to 1/2 cup, about 5 minutes. Stir in cream and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 1 minute more. Drizzle over sliced steak and serve with greens.

SIMPLE STEAK AU POIVRE

Steps:

• Put steaks in a shallow dish and season well on both sides with salt. Sprinkle black pepper and Sichuan pepper evenly over steaks. Press pepper into both sides with hands and leave for 10 minutes.
• Put a large cast iron skillet over high heat. When surface is nearly smoking, swirl 1 tablespoon butter in the pan and add steaks. Adjust heat as necessary to keep steaks sizzling briskly.
• Cook for 2 minutes on first side; seared side should be nicely browned. Flip and cook for 2 minutes more. Transfer steaks to a warm platter.
• Make the sauce: Add 1 tablespoon butter to the pan. Add shallots and sauté for a minute or so, stirring, until they begin to brown. Add broth and bring to a brisk simmer. Add Cognac and continue to simmer until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in crème fraîche and cook until sauce is lightly thickened.
• Return steaks to pan to warm, spooning sauce over them and turning once. Arrange steaks on platter or individual plates and top with more sauce. Garnish with bouquets of watercress and serve immediately.

STEAK AU POIVRE WITH GREEN PEPPERCORNS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy skillet large enough to hold the steaks in one layer over high heat. Add the steaks and brown them for 3 minutes for medium rare.
• Turn and continue cooking until they are thoroughly browned, about 3 minutes more. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
• Pour off the fat from the skillet and reduce the heat to medium high. Add the shallots and cook briefly until wilted. Do not brown. Add the wine over high heat and reduce to one-quarter. Add the broth and stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom of the skillet. Add the tomato paste, peppercorns and any juices that may have accumulated around the steaks.
• Reduce the sauce by more than half and stir in the butter. Check for seasoning. Spoon the sauce over the steaks and garnish with the parsley
