				Preparation
			
		 
                
                        Roast the vegetables
                    
                    - Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Halve the carrots lengthwise (quarter if large).
- Remove the woody ends of the asparagus. In a medium bowl, toss with a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss the carrots with a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- Roast, 9 to 11 min., until partially cooked.
- Flip the carrots and add the asparagus. Roast, 9 to 11 min., until the vegetables are tender.
 
                
                        Cook the steaks
                    
                    - Meanwhile, pat the steaks dry; season with S&P.
- In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the steaks* and cook, 3 to 5 min. per side, until cooked as desired (to ensure a consistent temperature throughout, turn over at least twice).
- Transfer to a cutting board, leaving any browned bits in the pan. Reserve the pan. Let rest before slicing.
 
                
                        Mise en place
                    
                    - Meanwhile, pick the tarragon leaves off the stems.
- Wrap the peppercorns in a dish towel; using a heavy pan, press down and rock until roughly crushed.
 
                
                        Make the sauce
                    
                    - In the reserved pan, heat 2 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) on medium.
- Add the peppercorns and sauté, 1 to 2 min., until fragrant.
- Add the vinegar and cook, scraping up any browned bits, 1 to 2 min., until most of the liquid has evaporated.
- Add the demi-glace, cream and ¼ cup water (double for 4 portions).
- Cook, stirring often, 2 to 3 min., until the sauce has thickened.
- Off the heat, add the tarragon; stir well.
 
                
                        Plate your dish
                    
                    - Divide the vegetables and steaks between your plates.
- Spoon the sauce over the steaks. Bon appétit!
