Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Green peppercorn filet is best served hot, with a side of roasted potatoes, mashed potatoes, or seasonal vegetables. A glass of full-bodied red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot is a perfect match.
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Gently reheat in a pan over low heat, adding a splash of cream if the sauce has thickened too much. Avoid microwaving to preserve the texture of the meat.
Variations:
Lighter sauce: Substitute the cream with half-and-half or Greek yogurt for a lighter version of the sauce.
Different meats: Try this recipe with pork tenderloin or chicken breast for a delicious twist on the classic.
Dijon touch: Add a teaspoon of Dijon mustard to the sauce for extra depth and a slight tanginess.
Herbal infusion: Infuse the cream with fresh thyme or rosemary for an herbal note that complements the peppercorn heat.
