Pepper steak with green pepper

Pepper steak with green pepper is a successful combination, even if it is rather neglected by many steak lovers. For many, fillet steak is too good to be drowned in a pepper sauce. A good pepper sauce enhances the tender flavour of the steak.

I wanted to try it out myself, so I made a delicious pepper sauce for steaks and fried fillet steaks with it.

Ingredients

Pepper sauce

150 g shallots
1 clove of garlic
20 g butter
300 ml roast stock
50 ml port wine
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
250 g cooking cream
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp potato starch – mix with 2 tbsp water
20 g green pepper
Salt

Peel and roughly chop the shallots and garlic. Sauté in a slim, tall saucepan with a little butter.

Add the stock, port, balsamic vinegar and cream and bring to the boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 min.

Remove from the heat and puree finely with a stand mixer.

Coarsely crush the green pepper, add and bring to the boil briefly.

Mix the potato starch with 2 tbsp water and add. Boil gently for 1 – 2 min and remove from the heat.

Season with soy sauce and salt.

The steak

(per person)

2 fillet steaks a 250-300 g other steaks also work.
Olive oil
Garlic
salt and pepper

Soak the fillet steak in a little salt and olive oil at room temperature for about 60 minutes before frying and leave it covered outside.

Heat olive oil in a cast-iron pan and fry the fillet steak for about 60 seconds on each side. Then I turn the steak 45° and fry it for another 60 seconds on each side. Then I put it in the oven, which I preheated to 100°C beforehand. The steaks rest in the pepper sauce for about 10-15 minutes.

Serve

After resting, the pepper steak is placed on preheated plates and served with some pepper sauce and a few peppercorns. Serve with chips, garlic spinach or corn on the cob.

It goes well with a well-tempered red wine or a cool beer.

Enjoy your meal!
