HUNTER'S BEEF

Hunter's Beef image

This is a great recipe for a small dinner party. The pan sauce is delicious over garlic cheese mashed potatoes or recipe #247050. This is probably my husband's favorite dish, at least it is the one he requests the most. As written the sauce can be spicy (depending on the freshness and type of cayenne you have), so if you are not a fan of spicy food I would 1/2 the cayenne.
