I like most of Rachael Ray’s steak recipes, we’re having a lot of beef this week. I really enjoy the flavor or liquors in the marinade, I don’t drink these, but using them in sauces and marinades just make everything taste better. This recipe calls for the fire thing, which I haven’t attempted, I thought this would do it on its own, but it didn’t. I’m too scared to do that, what if I catch on fire, the baby can’t call 9-1-1. None the less, these steaks were great, I couldn’t get the baby to try it,  but he was satisfied with french fries and deli ham.

Recipe: Cognac Sauced Pepper Steaks 

Cognac Sauced Steak

Cookbook: 2,4,6,8

Total Time: 20 minutes

Notes: I didn’t do anything different, I used chicken stock, oh and my heavy cream wasn’t good, so I just used some whole milk instead. I think it took the sauce a little longer to thicken up, but it was about the consistency of gravy. I enjoyed every bite!
