Season both sides of beef medallions with salt and pepper. Melt butter in skillet over medium to high heat. Once butter is hot add medallions. Cook for 45 to 60 seconds on one side, turn and cook for 30 seconds on opposite side. Add garlic and shallots to pan stirring for about 20 seconds. Add mushrooms and cook until mushrooms become soft, about two minutes. Remove medallions, place on plate and cover to keep warm. Remove pan from heat, and add brandy. Slightly tilt pan away from your body, and ignite brandy. Return pan to heat, once the flame burns out. Mix in Dijon mustard, and heavy cream stir for about one minute.

What a pretty dining room and view! I’m tempted to start visiting Tempe more often now…
WOW! This sounds soooo yummy.. and I’m so glad this steak recipe doesn’t call for a grill, as grilling is not my forte. I’ll just have to make sure I don’t burn down our kitchen or my face for that matter, when I ignite that brandy! Num Num.
Now this recipe sounds devine.

Beautiful restaurant, I have not been yet, but I will be attending a party there in October.
It is excellent to discover additional tips for tasty recipes and straightforward ways to cook them. My husband and I made this recipe for our dinner a few days ago. All the family adored it, I will be serving it on a regular basis now.
