  3. Bake the Steak: Transfer the seared steaks to a preheated oven at 350°F. Bake for approximately 10 minutes until desired doneness.
  4. Prepare Colcannon: Boil the potatoes until tender, then mash with cooked kale, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Make the Whiskey Cream Sauce: In the same pan, sauté shallots until translucent, deglaze with whiskey, and stir in the cream, simmering until thickened.
  6. Serve: Plate the steak on a bed of colcannon and drizzle with whiskey cream sauce. Serve immediately.
