Foie Gras

Method

Preparation

1

Preparing the Foie Gras

Slice the foie gras into 1-inch thick pieces. Season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

2

Searing the Foie Gras

In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the butter. Once melted and hot, carefully place the foie gras slices in the skillet. Sear for about 30 seconds on each side until a golden crust forms.

3

Adding Cognac

Carefully add the cognac to the skillet, allowing it to ignite if desired for flambe. Cook for an additional 30 seconds, then remove the foie gras from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

Serving

Serve the seared foie gras on a plate drizzled with balsamic reduction and garnished with fresh thyme.
