Chef Serge Krikorian is whipping up the goods for you with this pan-seared steak with brandy cream sauce recipe! This recipe was first presented on THV 11’s The Vine show with Adam Bledsoe and Ashley King. We are excited to share the written recipe with you here today and tell you a little more about the dish.
Everyday is a great day for a steak recipe, but this one is especially impressive for holiday celebrations and dinner parties. It feels festive and livens up a meal leaving guests feeling more than satisfied. Brandy cream is a less rich alternative to brandy butter and is an absolutely mouth-watering addition to any steak. Its creamy texture and savory flavor adds a moisture-rich ingredient that creates a unique twist. It makes a great sauce for many pasta dishes and don’t worry if you don’t have brandy on hand! You can always substitute an equal amount of rum, bourbon or cognac.
