Steak with a Green Peppercorn Sauce
The Green Peppercorn Sauce is one of my husband's favourites. So one day he asked if I could make it for him. This is the recipe I found, I have now made it quite a few times, and my husband loves it. This is a great sauce to serve with a steak.
Try and take your steaks out of the refrigerator 1 hour before you cook them. This makes cooking times more accurate. If you do cook it fridge cold, you will need to cook the steaks longer.
I love it with a green salad, but it is also perfect with creamy potatoes or hot chips.
A simple, fast but really tasty meal. You should try it.
