Filet Mignon with Mushroom-Cabernet Gravy

Servings:

I love pan-searing because it gives filet mignon steaks a beautiful color and crust on the outside while leaving them tender inside! And because of the influence of my husband's French grandmother, I love to cook anything with wine! The Cabernet, mushrooms, and fresh thyme gravy make this recipe delicious! Try it; you'll love it!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season filets with salt and black pepper; sear until well-browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to a platter, tent with aluminum foil, and keep warm.
  2. 2 Reduce the heat to medium; add butter to the skillet until melted. Add mushrooms and shallot; cook and stir occasionally, until mushrooms begin to release their liquid and shallot is soft, about 5 minutes.
  3. 3 Add wine, beef broth, and thyme; simmer until sauce begins to reduce, 6 to 10 minutes. Return steaks to the skillet; simmer until steaks are medium-rare, 2 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Transfer steaks to serving plates.
  4. 4 Whisk water and cornstarch together in a small bowl until forms a smooth paste; stir into sauce until thickened, about 30 seconds. Top servings with mushroom-wine sauce.
