Season both sides of beef medallions with salt and pepper. Melt butter in skillet over medium to high heat. Once butter is hot add medallions.

Add mushrooms and cook until mushrooms become soft, about two minutes. Remove medallions, place on plate and cover to keep warm. Remove pan from heat, and add brandy. Slightly tilt pan away from your body, and ignite brandy. Return pan to heat, once the flame burns out. Mix in Dijon mustard, and heavy cream stir for about one minute.
