Bourbon Pepper Pan Sauce
Mastering pan sauces is one of the most important but easiest steps towards producing legit restaurant-quality dishes at home. Assemble all the sauce ingredients before cooking the steak so you can make the sauce during the 5-minute resting time for steak.

You can also switch up the bourbon for another liquor, since this really is just a technique recipe.
