Peppercorn Steaks
1 T. whole black peppercorns, crushed
16 oz. cubed steak
2 T. butter or margarine
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 T. Worcestershire sauce
1/2 C. red wine or beef broth
1 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 tsp. sugar
2 tsp. cornstarch

Rub pepper over both sides of steaks. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. In an ungreased skillet over medium-high heat, brown steaks on both sides. Add butter and garlic; cook for 2 to 4 minutes, turning steaks once. Add Worcestershire sauce; cook 2 to 4 minutes longer or until meat reaches desired doneness, turning once. Remove steaks and keep warm. Combine wine or broth, mustard and sugar; add to the pan. Stir to loosen browned bits. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; add to pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with the steaks.
