Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • Tongs
  • Sharp Knife
  • Measuring Cups
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

  • 2 1 " thick filet mignon steaks about 6-8 ounces each removed from fridge 1 hour prior to cooking
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil divided
  • 1 ounce dried gourmet mushrooms sliced reconstituted in hot water then drained (optional)
  • 1/2 pound cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 2 large shallots minced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup dry Marsala wine
  • 1 cup low-sodium beef stock
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons flat leaf Italian parsley
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and place the rack in the middle. Pat steaks dry and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Sear steaks for 4 minutes per side, including the sides if thick. Place on a baking tray and cook in the oven until 120°F (about 5-6 minutes). Tent with foil when done.
  • Turn burner to medium-high. Add reconstituted mushrooms to the pan and cook for 3 minutes. Add cremini mushrooms and cook until they release water (5-7 minutes). Let them brown for a few more minutes.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining olive oil, shallots, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add garlic and cook for another minute.
  • Add flour to the pan and whisk until no white specks remain. Whisk in Marsala wine and bring to a boil. Reduce by half, then add beef stock and boil until the sauce thickens (about 2 minutes). Lower to a simmer.
  • Season sauce with salt and pepper. Add steaks back to the pan and spoon sauce on top. Flip steaks every minute until they reach 130-135°F or desired doneness. Remove steaks, whisk butter and parsley into the sauce, pour over steaks, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
