Ingredients
  • STEAKS
  • 4 (12-ounce) rib-eye steaks
  • Olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon finely ground coffee
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon - (I Omit this)

  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar - (I Omit this)
  • SAUCE
  • 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 shallot, sliced thin
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • 1/4 cup brandy
  • 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
  • Salt, to taste

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Coat steaks with olive oil.
  3. In a bowl, combine coffee, cinnamon, black pepper, salt, chili powder, cayenne and sugar.
  4. Dust steaks with the spice mixture.
  5. Heat a large, flat, cast-iron skillet or griddle over high heat, until smoking.
