This classic French dish starts with quality steaks crusted with fresh cracked black pepper. We top it with a rich brandy sauce made healthier with yoghurt instead of heavy cream. We use a filet from the wider end of the tenderloin, or you could try a strip steak. If you prefer a thick, round filet mignon, increase cooking time by a few minutes. Any way you slice it, it’s delicious!

Ingredient List

2 tablespoons black peppercorns , crushed
4 boneless beef tenderloin steaks (4 to 6 oz each)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
2 teaspoons freshly cracked black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher (coarse) salt
2 tablespoons brandy
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup Mountain High® original plain yoghurt
1 teaspoon all-purpose flour

Preparation

Press the crushed peppercorns firmly onto the tops and bottoms of the steaks, so the peppercorns stick to the steaks.
Press the crushed peppercorns firmly onto the tops and bottoms of the steaks, so the peppercorns stick to the steaks. Heat the vegetable oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Cook steaks in oil 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until medium-rare to medium (145°F to 160°F). Remove from skillet; keep warm.
Heat the olive oil in same skillet over medium heat. Stir in shallot, pepper and salt. Cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add brandy and sugar; cook for about 1 minute, stirring to scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pan. Whisk in yoghurt and flour, combining thoroughly until thickened. Pour sauce over warm filets and serve immediately.
