Method
Pastas & Entrees
Season the beef
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides with 0.5 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp pepper.
Cook mushrooms
Add the sliced mushrooms. Cook until browned and their moisture evaporates, about 5-7 minutes.
Deglaze with cognac
Carefully pour in cognac and ignite to flambé, allowing flames to burn off and alcohol to reduce, about 1-2 minutes.
Reduce with stock
Add beef stock and cook until reduced by half, about 3-4 minutes.
Finish sauce
Stir in Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce. Pour in heavy cream and simmer until the sauce thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
Return steaks to sauce
Return steaks to the pan and spoon sauce over; cook 1-2 minutes to rewarm the beef and infuse flavor.
Finish and serve
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top before serving.
