Steps:
- Step 1: Place a large heavy-bottomed pan over medium/high heat and melt in 2 Tbsp butter and 1 Tbsp oil. Add thickly sliced mushrooms and cook 5 min until soft. Stir in onion and cook another 3 minutes. Press in garlic cloves then season with 1/4 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper and 1 Tbsp fresh thyme. Cook another 2 min, stirring constantly until garlic is fragrant, then transfer the mushroom mixture to a plate. Wipe the skillet clean with a wet paper towel.
- Step 2: Pat dry steaks with a paper towel and season all over with salt and pepper (we use a total of 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper).
- Step 3: Place the same pan over medium/high heat and add 2 Tbsp butter and 1 Tbsp oil. When butter is hot and finished foaming, add seasoned steaks to skillet and saute, turning over once with tongs about 3-5 min per side for medium-rare (I cooked 5-6 min per side for medium doneness). If steak is browning too fast, reduce heat to medium. Use tongs to transfer steaks to the plate with mushrooms. Please note that thinner steaks will cook faster and thicker steaks can take longer.
- Step 4: Add 1/2 cup Merlot (any will do) and boil until reduced by half (3 min), scraping the bottom with a spatula to deglaze the pan. Add 1 1/2 cups broth and boil until about 2/3 cup liquid remains (5-6 min). Add 1/2 cup cream and boil until sauce thickens slightly (2 min). Return mushrooms and steak to the pan and heat until warmed through (1 - 2 min). Season sauce to taste with more salt & pepper if desired (I added about 1/4 tsp more salt).
- Step 5: Plate the steak and spoon generous amounts of mushroom sauce over the top.

FILET MIGNON WITH MUSHROOM-CABERNET GRAVY
I love pan-searing because it gives the filet mignon steaks that beautiful color and crust on the outside and leaves them so tender inside! And because of the influence of my husband's French grandmother, I love to cook anything with wine! The Cabernet and mushrooms, along with fresh thyme, make this absolutely delicious! Try this: you'll love it!

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.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for a well-marbled filet mignon steak and fresh mushrooms.
- Season the steak liberally with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to develop a flavorful crust.
- Cook the steak over high heat to get a good sear. This will help to lock in the juices and prevent the steak from overcooking.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Make sure the red wine sauce is simmering gently before adding the steak. This will help to prevent the sauce from curdling.
- Serve the filet mignon with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, asparagus, or green beans.
Conclusion:
This filet mignon with mushroom red wine sauce is a classic dish that is sure to impress your guests. The steak is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and decadent. This dish is perfect for a special occasion dinner or a romantic night in.
