1
Prepare the Steak
Season the K.C. Strip Steaks with salt and crushed black peppercorns on both sides.
2
Sear the Steak
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness.
3
Make the Sauce
Remove the steaks from the skillet and keep warm. In the same skillet, add the brandy and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom. Allow it to reduce by half.
4
Finish the Sauce
Lower the heat and add heavy cream, stirring until the sauce thickens. Adjust seasoning with salt and additional crushed peppercorns if desired.
5
Serve
Plate the steaks and drizzle the peppercorn cream sauce over the top. Serve with confit potato or a green salad.
