Portobello 'Steak' au Poivre image

Provided by Ali Slagle

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large portobello mushrooms, stems and gills removed with a spoon
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons coarsely ground black pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more as needed
3 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
Kosher salt
1 shallot, finely chopped
1/4 cup Cognac or another brandy
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

Steps:

Brush the mushrooms all over with olive oil. Sprinkle the pepper evenly over the gill sides (about 1/2 teaspoon per mushroom). Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high, then add the mushrooms gill side up and sear until the underside is browned and the gill side looks wet, 3 to 6 minutes. Flip and cook until golden and the pepper is fragrant, 2 to 4 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low. Flip the mushrooms so they're gill side up, then add the butter and garlic, and season with salt. While stirring the garlic to keep it from scorching, tilt the skillet to spoon up the melting butter and baste the mushrooms until tender, 2 to 5 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a plate, leaving the butter in the skillet.
Add the shallot and stir until softened, 2 to 4 minutes, adding a little more butter if the pan is dry. Stand back, and carefully add the Cognac. (It might flame.) Stir until the Cognac has nearly evaporated. Add the heavy cream and mustard, season with salt, and stir to combine. Return the mushrooms to the pan gill side down, and cook until the cream is thickened and the color of a latte, 2 to 4 minutes. Eat the mushrooms with a drizzle of the sauce.
