Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.

6

In the same skillet, add 3 tablespoons of butter and 1 chopped onion.

Pour in cognac and carefully light it on fire to flambé, allowing the alcohol to burn off.

Once the flames subside, add 1 can of beef broth and bring to a boil.

10

Stir in 1/4 cup of heavy cream and 2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, mixing well.

11

Reduce the sauce by half over about 5 minutes.
