Best Pan Roasted Beef Delmonico With Sweet Green Peppercorn Sauce And Browned Vegetables Recipes

PAN ROASTED FILET MIGNON WITH GREEN PEPPERCORNS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the steaks generously with salt on both sides. Press the top and bottoms of the steaks into the peppercorns to crust on each side.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large heavy saute pan or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until very hot. Add the steaks and sear for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Cook until the internal temperature is around 125 degrees F for medium-rare. Remove the steaks from the pan and allow them to rest.
• In the same pan the steaks were cooked in, add the shallots along with the remaining tablespoon oil and the green peppercorns and reduce the heat to medium. Cook until the shallots are softened and lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Turn off the heat, then add the brandy and return the heat to medium. Cook for 1 minute. Add the beef stock and cream, then reduce the liquid by half until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Season with salt as needed.
• Turn off the heat. Swirl in the butter and melt, stirring often. Return the steaks to the pan and coat with the sauce. Sprinkle with the parsley and a splash of red wine vinegar to balance the richness of the sauce. Place the steaks on a plate, then spoon the sauce over and serve.

SEARED BEEF TOURNEDOS WITH HERB-ROASTED POTATOES AND SAUCE AU POIVRE (DELMONICO STEAKHOUSE)

Steps:

• Season the tournedos on both sides with the salt. Brush steaks with the mustard. Spread the pepper on a plate, coat steaks in pepper. Heat the oil in a heavy ovenproof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meat and sear for 2 1/2 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Off the heat, sprinkle steaks with brandy. Return the pan to the heat, and flambe. (Depending upon the thickness of the meat, the cooking time of the steaks may vary.)
• Sauce au Poivre: Place the black pepper in a dry small saucepan and toast over medium-high heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the oil and stir to combine. Add the shallots and green peppercorns, and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Remove the pan from the heat, add the brandy, return to the heat to flambe, then simmer until reduced by three-quarters. Add the mustard and stir to combine, then add the veal reduction and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced by half, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the salt. Serve hot.
• Place 3 tournedos on each serving plate. Drizzle with the sauce and serve with the herb-roasted potatoes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the bones in a large roasting pan and toss with the oil. Roast, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 1 hour.
• Remove from the oven and spread the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic over the bones. Smear the tomato paste over the vegetables and return the pan to the oven. Roast for another 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and pour off the fat from the pan.
• Transfer the bones and vegetables to a large stockpot. Do not discard the juices in the roasting pan. Add the water, bay leaves, thyme, salt, and peppercorns to the stockpot and bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, place the roasting pan over 2 burners on medium-high heat. Add the wine and stir with a heavy wooden spoon to deglaze and dislodge any browned bits clinging to the bottom of the pan. Add the contents to the stockpot. When the liquid returns to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 8 hours, skimming occasionally to remove any foam that rises to the surface.
• Ladle through a fine-mesh strainer into a large clean pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to a gentle boil, and cook, uncovered, until reduced to 6 cups in volume, about 1 hour. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate overnight.
• Remove any congealed fat from the surface of the stock. The stock can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen in airtight containers for up to 2 months.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and toss to mix well. Transfer to a roasting pan and roast until the potatoes are fork tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Serve immediately.

GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Add olive oil to pan after removing beef. Add shallots, garlic, and thyme; saute for 1 to 2 minutes, then, off heat, add brandy and flambe using a long kitchen match. After flame dies down, return to the heat, add stock and reduce by about half. Strain out solids, then add 2 cups cream and mustard. Reduce by half again, then shut off heat and add green peppercorns.

GRILLED HANGER STEAK WITH BRANDIED GREEN PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Bring a large cast-iron grill pan to medium-high heat.
• Pat the steak dry and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Drizzle with oil. Place the steak into the pan and sear until browned (without moving the steak), 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the steak over and cook a further 3 to 4 minutes on the second side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the pan and add to a cast-iron pan. Put the steak into the oven for 5 minutes to finish cooking through. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest on a plate while you prepare the sauce.
• Place the cast-iron pan over medium heat and add the oil to heat. Once heated, add the shallots to the pan. Saute until translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the thyme leaves, and then remove the pan from flame (for safety purposes) and add the brandy. Ignite the brandy by returning to the stove top and tilting the pan toward the open flame, or carefully lighting with a lighter or match. Once the flames subside, add the cream and swirl to incorporate. Add the peppercorns and simmer the sauce until it has reduced by two-thirds to a smooth, slightly thick consistency, 3 to 5 minutes. Add any pan drippings to the sauce. Season with salt, if needed. To finish, remove the pan from the heat and swirl in the butter.
• To serve, slice the rested hanger steak into 1/2-inch strips, against the grain, and serve with a drizzle of brandied green peppercorn sauce over the top.

FILET MIGNON WITH GREEN PEPPERCORN CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil stock in small saucepan until reduced to 3/4 cup, about 7 minutes. Meanwhile, melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Season steaks with salt and pepper. Cook steaks to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plate (do not clean skillet).
• Add chopped shallots to same skillet and sauté 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Add reduced beef stock, 1 cup whipping cream, 3 tablespoons Cognac and green peppercorns. Boil until mixture thickens to sauce consistency, about 6 minutes. Season sauce to taste with pepper. Spoon sauce over steaks and serve.

PAN-SEARED VEAL STEAKS WITH GREEN PEPPERCORNS

Steps:

• Put veal steaks on a platter and season on both sides with salt. Sprinkle with lemon zest, garlic and thyme sprigs and set aside for an hour (or refrigerate for up to 3 hours, then bring to room temperature). Just before cooking, scrape aromatics from steaks and dust lightly on both sides with flour.
• Put olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Add veal steaks and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes, then turn and cook for 2 minutes more. Remove and keep warm. Wipe skillet clean, then add butter and diced shallot. Season lightly with salt and cook, stirring, until shallot is soft and beginning to color, about 3 minutes.
• Turn heat to high, add peppercorns and cook for 1 minute. Add stock and simmer until reduced by nearly half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add crème fraîche and brandy and stir to incorporate. Return veal to pan and continue simmering until sauce thickens a bit, about 2 minutes more.
• Distribute steaks among 4 warmed plates. Spoon sauce over steaks, sprinkle with parsley and crispy shallot, if using, and serve immediately.
