Steak Au Poivre Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Grits

   In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly stir in the grits and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Season with salt and butter to taste.

2. 2

   Cook the Steak

   Season the Angus NY Strip Steak generously with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove the steak and let it rest.

3. 3

   Prepare the Asparagus

   In the same skillet used for the steak, add the asparagus and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Make the Green Peppercorn Sauce

   In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add green peppercorns and sauté for 1 minute. Pour in the heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the skillet. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

5. 5

   Plate the Dish

   Slice the rested steak and serve it on a plate with grits and sautéed asparagus. Drizzle the green peppercorn sauce over the steak and enjoy!
