Tequila Cream Sauce!

Ok here goes, I found this sauce one day after (god forbid) pan searing a steak. It works well with both the steak and fish.
Start with one cup of tequila, 2-3 shalotts, and 10-12 green peppercorns. I get the ones that are in a brine, they look a lot like capers.
Simmer until reduced by half.
(If pan searing of course deglaze with the tequila.)
Add approx. 2/3cup heavy cream, continue to reduce until sauce coats the back of a spoon.
This part is optional, strain out the peppercorns and shallotts. I leave them in if doing a steak.
Finish with 2-3tsp butter, salt and white pepper.
It's pretty mild but is a nice accent to both.
Hope you enjoy,
Kenny

dang kenny, that sounds really good!!! ... but what i'm really impressed about is that YOU actually left enough tequilla in the bottle to make a sauce in the first place!!!!!

I had an old bottle of Cuervo 1800, had to use it for something. You know I won't drink that stuff. :S

LOL. ...thats like me and wine. ..won't drink it, but i'll always find a good use for it to cook with!!. ..that tequila sauce sounds great... .i also like to throw a shot of tequila into almost any flank steak or skirt steak or hanger steak marinade for a little extra flavor additive. .. .
