The Secret Ingredient (Pink Peppercorn): Lamb Au Pink Peppercorn Poivre Recipe

1. 1

   Crust the lamb with salt and half the pink peppercorns.

3. 3

   Remove the lamb to a plate to rest. Pour off any extra fat from the pan.

4. 4

   Take the pan off the heat, and add the Cognac (stand back!).

5. 5

   Return to the heat, scrape up the brown bits of meat, and simmer to reduce by half.
