Bourbon Peppercorn Steak Sauce

January 3, 2022

This tasty steak sauce is versatile with many different foods.

I also enjoyed this with some pan seared tofu.

Step 1:

• 2 TB Butter

• 3 TB Minced Shallot (sub onion if you like)

In a pan, melt the butter and saute shallots until golden.

Step 2:

• 4 Cloves Garlic, minced (if you don’t have fresh garlic, sub in 1 1/4 tsp Granulated Garlic during Step 5)

Add garlic and continue cooking until softened.

Step 3:

• 1/2 cup Bourbon or Brandy

Add the spirit and allow the alcohol to cook off.

Step 4:

• 1 cup Beef/Chicken/Vegetable Stock

• 3/4 cup Heavy Whipping Cream (sub in Coconut Milk if lactose intolerant)

• 2 TB Red Wine

Add liquids into pan.

Step 5:

• 1 TB Grated Parmesan

• 1 TB Pink Peppercorns (ALLERGEN: see note below), roughly cracked in a mortar

• 1 tsp Green Peppercorn, roughly cracked in a mortar

• 1/4 tsp Salt

• 1/8 tsp Turmeric

• 1/8 tsp Smoked Paprika

Add remaining ingredients and cook on medium-high heat. Reduce until sauce thickens. Be patient. This will take a while.

ALLERGEN NOTE: Pink peppercorn is actually part of the tree nut family (a relative of the cashew tree). If you have a nut allergy, please do not consume. You can substitute with black or green peppercorn.
