Sauteed Steak Diane

I made this last night and it was absolutely delicious and very simple and quick to make. It only took about 20 minutes all together. I served it with a rice and lentil dish, but it was a bit bland, so I want to play with it a bit before posting it here. It's a nice dish to go with some rice and steamed veggies, though.

4 thin slices of rump steak (about 1/4 inch thick)
4 tsp onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup water
8 tsp Worcestershire sauce
8 tsp brandy or beef stock
1 tsp fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup sliced green onion
4 tsp butter
1 tbsp chopped parsley
Julienne of lemon peel for garnish

1) Spray a large non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks for about 1 minute on each side, then place the steaks on a plate and cover to keep warm. You may have to cook them one or two at a time depending on the size of the steaks.

2) Add onion, water and Worcestershire sauce to the frying pan. Cook over medium high heat, scraping up pan sediment, until reduced, about 2 minutes.

3) Stir in brandy, lemon juice, green onions, butter and any beef juices from the plate. Cook for 1 minute. Stir in parsley. Place steaks on dinner plates and top with the sauce. Garnish with lemon peel and serve.
