Prepare the Steaks:
1. Season the beef tenderloin steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.

4. Carefully pour in the brandy or cognac and let it simmer for about 1-2 minutes to reduce slightly.
5. Stir in the beef broth, heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened.
Combine and Serve:
1. Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them.
2. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat the steaks through.
3. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley.
4. Serve the Steak Diane hot, with the sauce drizzled over the top. Pair with your favorite sides for an elegant dinner experience.
