Beef Tenderloin Steaks with Mustard-Cognac Sauce

Ingredients for Beef Tenderloin Steaks with Mustard-Cognac Sauce

• 6 (7- to 230g ) beef tenderloin steaks (each about 1 1/2 inches thick)

• Coarse kosher salt

• Pimenta-do-reino moída

• 45ml canola oil

• 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) chilled unsalted butter, divided

• 4 garlic cloves, peeled, smashed

• 2 fresh thyme sprigs

• 2 fresh rosemary sprigs

• 120g finely chopped shallots

• 60g Cognac or brandy

• 2 tablespoons tawny Port

• 725ml low-salt chicken broth

• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

Preheat oven to 121°C. Sprinkle steaks on all sides with salt and pepper. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over high heat. Add steaks and sear until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add 3 tablespoons butter, garlic, thyme, and rosemary to skillet. Cook steaks to desired doneness, turning occasionally and basting with pan juices, about 12 minutes for medium-rare.

Transfer steaks to small rimmed baking sheet and keep warm in oven.

Pour contents of skillet into small bowl. Return 45ml drippings from bowl to same skillet and place over high heat. Add shallots and sauté 2 minutes. Add Cognac and Port and stir 1 minute, scraping up any browned bits. Add broth and boil until sauce is reduced to 240ml , about 12 minutes. Whisk in Dijon mustard, then remaining 45ml cold butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Arrange steaks on plates; whisk any accumulated juices from baking sheet into sauce. Spoon sauce over steaks and serve.
