PRE-PREPARATION:

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C

PREPARATION:

Pepper Crusted Roast Beef:

  1. Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet.
  2. Add the butter and oil and melt.
  3. Place the filet mignon and seal by turning until all sides are lightly browned.
  4. Turn off the heat, place the filet mignon on a cutting board and distribute the chopped peppers over the entire surface, pressing so that they adhere to the meat.
  5. Transfer the butter and oil from the skillet to a nonstick roasting pan (reserve the unwashed skillet for preparing the sauce), arrange the filet mignon in the center and set aside, covered with aluminum foil, while you prepare the sauce.

Pepper Crusted Roast Beef Dip:

  1. In the same skillet you prepared the meat in, melt the butter until browned.
  2. Add the onion and garlic and saute until they are also lightly browned.
  3. Drizzle with the cognac and balsamic vinegar and reduce to high heat to caramelize slightly.
  4. Add the wine and salt, reduce the heat to low and cook until the volume has reduced by half.
  5. Turn off the heat and set aside.

Pepper Crusted Roast Beef:
