The She-Wolf and I hadn't done a "fancy-schmantsy" date night meal in a bit, so we got organized and put this together... 14ish oz chunk of cow elk backstrap, crusted in kosher salt and cracked peppercorns and seared in butter. I pulled it when I figured it'd land at "rare plus" after resting. In the remaining butter went onions to saute, then brandy to deglaze. Heavy cream and a bit of butter; reduce to the consistency you're looking for. Slice the elk into medallions with the sauce atop and alongside our greenbeans and crispy Parmesan potatoes. Amen. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/TWETDrph.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/rahADyKl.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/U5bf1Rul.jpg)

One of my favorites. The kids love it when I light the brandy up. Yours looks delicious.
