Ingredients

4 ostrich steaks
Salt and pepper, to taste
2 tbsp olive oil
1 shallot, minced
1 cup Calvados apple brandy
1 cup chicken broth
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

Season the ostrich steaks with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the minced shallot and cook until softened, about 2 minutes.
Carefully pour in the Calvados brandy and cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to reduce slightly.
Stir in the chicken broth and simmer for an additional 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the heavy cream and Dijon mustard. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Return the ostrich steaks to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing them to heat through.
Serve the ostrich steaks with the Calvados sauce, garnished with fresh parsley.
