Using the skillet that you seared your filets, add the Tuscan Herb Olive Oil, add shallots and cook over medium to low heat for about 2 minutes, add brandy, stir to deglaze the skillet, cook until brandy evaporates, and the shallots are tender, then stir in the heavy cream and simmer until thickened.
