Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Rub the beef with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside and let stand at room temperature about 1 hour.

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl mash the pate de foie gras with a fork, and gradually add the Marsala, stirring the mixture until it is smooth. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    Heat the remaining olive oil in a heavy skillet. Cook the beef slices over high heat until just browned on both sides. Remove the meat from the pan.

  4. Step 4

    Reduce the heat to low, add the pate mixture, and cook, stirring, until the sauce is smooth.

  5. Step 5

    Return the beef to the pan, and cook about 2 minutes, then pour the brandy into the pan, light carefully with a match, and shake the pan until the flames subside.

  6. Step 6

    Remove the beef from the pan, transfer to a platter, and pour the sauce over the beef. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
