Filet Mignon In Mushroom Wine Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Generously season each side of the steaks with salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature about 20 minutes before cooking.
• In a cast-iron (or other heavy-duty) skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium heat. Add half of the shallots and saute until tender for a couple of minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and cook until the water has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the cooked mushrooms to a dish and set aside. Wipe the skillet clean.
• Heat another tablespoon of butter over high heat in the skillet. It will bubble and foam, and after it stops, add the steaks. Sear on each side for about 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate and tent with foil.
• Reduce the heat to medium high. Add the remaining shallots and saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the flame off and add the wine. Turn the flame back on to high, bring to boil and let reduce by half. Whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter. Stir in the reserved mushrooms.
• Spoon the sauce over the steaks and serve.

• Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness.
• Place on a platter; keep warm.
• Combine soy sauce and cornstarch.
• Add 1/2 cup wine and remaining consommé to skillet; scrape skillet to loosen browned bits.

Steps:

• In a nonstick frying pan, saute shallots and mushrooms in 1 tbsp butter for about 4 mins, til tender.
• Add 1/2 cup of red wine and 3 fl. oz consomme. Simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Remove the mushrooms from sauce, set aside.
• Boil sauce over high heat until reduced to 1/4 cup.
• Combine sauce with mushrooms in bowl. Set aside.
• Sprinkle filets with pepper to taste. Saute steaks in remaining 1 tbsp butter over medium heat, about 3 minutes per side for a 1-inch thick steak.
• Reduce fire to medium-low heat; cook steaks until desired level of doneness, about 10-15 minutes for medium rare. Remove from pan, keep warm.
• Add the rest of the red wine and beef consommé to the skillet. Bring to a boil. Boil for one minute.
• Add mushroom/sauce mixture, add cornstarch & soy sauce, and the thyme. Boil one minute, stirring constantly, until thickened.
• Place steaks on plate and pour sauce over. Garnish with fresh thyme.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the filets with salt and pepper, gently place them into the hot skillet, and sear until well-browned on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks to a platter, tent with aluminum foil, and keep warm.
• Turn the heat down to medium, and melt the butter. Cook and stir the shallot and mushrooms in the butter until the mushrooms begin to give off their liquid and the shallots are translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the wine, beef broth, and thyme, and simmer the sauce until it begins to reduce, 6 to 10 minutes. Return the steaks to the sauce, and simmer briefly until they start to become firm and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 2 to 4 minutes per side (for medium-rare.) An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove the steaks to serving dishes.
• In a small bowl, stir the cornstarch and water until it forms a smooth paste. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the pan sauce, and cook and stir until thickened, about 30 seconds. Top each serving with mushroom-wine sauce to serve.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the meat on both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside.
• Cut mushrooms into thin slices. There should be about 3 cups.
• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the slices of meat comfortably without crowding. Add the filets and cook until well browned on one side, about 5 minutes. Turn and continue cooking about 15 minutes or slightly longer. Turn the slices every 5 minutes as they cook.
• Remove the filets to a warm serving platter. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter to the skillet and when it melts add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms are wilted. Add the shallots and stir.
• Cook briefly, stirring and pour in the wine.
• Blend the beef broth with the tomato paste and add the mixture to the skillet. Add any liquid that has accumulated around the pieces of meat.
• Cook over moderately high heat about 5 minutes or until the mixture has acquired a saucelike consistency. There should be about 1 cup of sauce or slightly more. Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Swirl in the remaining butter and serve the sauce with the meat.
