Cracked Pepper Steak






Serves 2

Ingredients
1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
1⁄2 teaspoon dried rosemary
2 beef tenderloins, 1" thick (4–6 ounces each)
1 tablespoon trans-free margarine
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1⁄4 cup brandy or dry red wine

Instructions
Combine the pepper and the rosemary in a large bowl. Coat both sides of the steak with the mixture.

Heat the margarine and oil in a skillet until hot. Add the steaks and cook over medium to medium-high heat for 5–7 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in the center registers 160°F (for medium).

Remove the steaks from the skillet and cover to keep them warm.
Add the brandy to the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat, scraping particles from the bottom of the skillet. Boil for about 1 minute or until the liquid is reduced by half. Spoon the sauce over the steaks.
