Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients needed for the sauce.

Sauté Vegetables: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the chopped mushrooms, green onions, and diced Granny Smith apples to the saucepan. Sauté until the mushrooms are lightly golden and the onions are tender.
-
Deglaze with Brandy: Pour in the brandy, chicken broth, and fresh lemon juice. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Increase the heat to medium-high and allow the mixture to cook, stirring often, until it is reduced by half.
-
Incorporate Cream: Once the mixture has reduced, pour in the heavy cream. Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the remaining butter until it is fully incorporated into the sauce.

Strain and Season: Strain the sauce to remove any solid pieces and achieve a smooth texture. Lightly crush the green peppercorns and add them to the sauce, stirring gently to distribute the flavors.
-
Thicken Sauce: Return the saucepan to the heat and cook the sauce until it thickens slightly, stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.
