  • Rate This
This is a simple version of the classic French dish “Steak au Poivre” that requires just a few ingredients. It’s delicious and was my very first dish I cooked with a Sous Vide. It was probably the best meal I’ve ever had, but most definitely the best meal I’ve ever made. Hope you enjoy! :) (Yes, I combined this with fries to make it “Steak Frites au Poivre” lol)

Ingredients for 2

  • Filet Mignon (I cooked 2)

  • Kosher Salt

  • Freshly Ground Pepper

  • Garlic Powder

  • Small Can of Beef Broth/Bone Broth

  • Heavy Cream

  • Butter (I used Salted, but Unsalted might be better)

Directions

  • Step 1

    Season your Filets with Salt, Pepper, and Garlic Powder on all sides while your Sous Vide is preheating your water.

  • Step 2

    Use a vacuum sealer to vacuum seal your beautifully seasoned filets.

  • Step 3

    Once your bag is sealed with your filets, drop the sealed bag in the preheated water. Cook for 1 hour (best to set a timer)

  • Step 4

    Once your filets are done cooking for 1 hour, open the bag and get your steaks, WITHOUT POURING OUT THE JUICES IN THE BAG. Have cast-iron or stainless steel pan preheated on “Hi”. Add a little oil and sear each side of the filets for no longer than 45 seconds.

  • Step 5

    Put the seared filets on a plate for 5 minutes to rest. Heat a “heat proof” plate in the microwave for 1 minute. (USE OVEN GLOVES SO YOU DONT BURN YOURSELF) Put the rested filets on the warm plate and leave plate in the microwave.

  • Step 6

    Wipe up any oil and extra fat off the pan with a paper towel and add your small can of broth followed by your juices from the Sous Vide bag.

  • Step 7

    Whisk and reduce the broth down by over half.

  • Step 8

    Once reduced, slowly pour in the heavy cream while whisking constantly (if you don’t slowing pour or whisk constantly, your sauce with separate)

  • Step 9

    Add a LOT of freshly ground pepper. Simmer to thicken to your preferred thickness.

  • Step 10

    Once the sauces thickness is to your liking, reduce the heat down to low and whisk in 3 small slices of butter

  • Step 11

    Whisk in any resting juices in and assemble.

    • Finishing Steps

    • Step 0

      Take a couple of spoonfuls of your sauce and put on the bottom of the plate.

    • Step 2

      Spoon a little sauce over the top of the filet.
