STEAK DIANE

Steps:

• Pairs well with: cabernet
• Add the beef stock to a saucepan and reduce over medium-high heat to 1/2 cup, about 1 hour.
• Sprinkle the steaks on both sides with the salt and pepper. In a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and the olive oil. When the butter has melted and the oil shimmers, add the steaks. Brown the steaks on both sides, 3 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a plate and set aside, lightly covered with foil.
• Add the mushrooms and shallots to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, adding oil if needed. Add the garlic. When the garlic is lightly colored, add the brandy (be careful, it can ignite). Add the wine, mustard, Worcestershire and the reduced beef stock. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes more. Return the steaks to the pan and finish cooking them to the desired temperature, 2 to 4 minutes, depending upon the size of the filets and desired temperature/doneness. For medium-rare, cook to 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the sauce to melt.
• To serve, place a steak on each plate and pour the sauce over the steak.

STEAK DIANE

Steps:

• Season both sides of the steaks with a generous grind of sea salt and lesser grind of freshly ground pepper.
• Heat almost a tablespoon of olive oil in a large pan over high heat. Reduce the temperature to medium-high once the pan is really hot, and place the steaks in the pan. Cook each side for about 2.5 to 3 minutes, for a medium-rare steak.
• Temporarily remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board. Discard any oil in the pan, then crumple up a sheet of paper towel and use kitchen tongs to grip the paper towel and wipe the inside of the pan.
• Place the pan over medium heat and add the unsalted butter. Once the butter has almost melted, add in the onion and garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute.
• With your matchstick in hand, pour the cognac into the pan, then immediately light the alcohol in the pan on fire, being careful to keep a safe distance from the pan. Allow the flame to slowly subside before proceeding.
• Add in the worcestershire sauce and dijon, along with the heavy cream. Stir everything to combine and cook for another minute, just until the sauce is thick and bubbly.
• Pour the sauce over the steak and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

CHEF JOHN'S STEAK DIANE

Steps:

• Season steaks generously on both sides with salt. Allow steaks to come to room temperature while you make the sauce.
• Stir together demi-glace (see Cook's Note), mustard, Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, and cayenne pepper in a bowl.
• Heat oil in a skillet over very high heat, swirling carefully to evenly cover surface. When oil reaches a smoking point, transfer steaks to oil; add a few chunks of butter. Sear meat on high heat until brown on each side, 2 to 3 minutes per side; keep them on the rare side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 125 degrees F (52 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a warm plate.
• Stir shallots into skillet; cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; pour in Cognac. Carefully ignite with a fireplace lighter. When alcohol burns off and flames go out, return skillet to high heat and bring to a boil; cook, stirring, a few minutes to reduce slightly. Add demi-glace mixture, cream, and any accumulated juices from the steak. Cook on high heat just until sauce starts to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer steaks back to pan and reduce heat to low. Gently simmer until meat is heated through and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
• Transfer to hot plates and serve with a generous spoonful or two of sauce. Sprinkle with chives.
