Add the onion and cook gently until it becomes transparent looking. Add the garlic and cook gently for 10 - 20 seconds. Add the brandy and let it reduce to 1/3 it's volume. Add the rest of the ingredients and reduce until it thinly coats the back of a metal spoon, this is called a sauce consistency. Return the steak to the pan to reheat and check the seasoning of the sauce.
