Filet Mignon With a Red Wine Reduction image

I made this dinner for my boyfriend and I. He is a huge steak guy and loves filet mignon. He devoured it and got mad when I gave a piece to the dog and ate whatever I had left. So if you love a good steak, try this recipe! :)

Categories     Steak

Time 35m

Yield 2 Steaks, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

20 ounces tenderloins filet mignon
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 cups red wine

Steps:

  • Cut fat off filet mignon steaks. Place steaks in large bowl/pan/plate/platter.
  • Drizzle 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar on each steak. Flip steaks over and drizzle the other tablespoon of balsamic vinegar.
  • Sprinkle the salt, pepper, and sugar on both side of steaks. Let the steaks sit for 10 minutes at room temperature.
  • Pour red wine into sauce pan over high heat. I suggested 2 cups but make enough sauce to satisfy your taste or number of steaks. Wait until wine becomes thick and syrupy. Turn off heat.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F Also preheat a heavy pan over medium heat on stove.
  • Drizzle 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over steaks.
  • Sear steaks 1 or 2 minutes on each side on pan. Pour red wine reduction over steaks while cooking. I used a spoon to do this in moderation and avoid getting too much red wine in there.
  • Place pan with steaks into the oven. Let them cook for 8-10 minutes. This will make your steak brown on the outside and pink on the inside (depending on the thickness of the steak and power of the oven). Try cutting a steak with your knife to check the inside.
  • Remove the pan from the oven and let steaks sit in the pan for 5 minutes to let them soak the juices inches.
  • Serve steaks on plate. Take a spoon and drizzle the juice from the pan over your steaks. Make sure to get a lot of juice on there! Enjoy!
  • PS - I served these with cheddar and bacon mashed potatoes. Also try potatoes au gratin or steak fries!

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 shallot, minced
4 ounces sliced mixed mushrooms
1 cup red wine

PAN-SEARED STEAK WITH RED WINE SAUCE



Pan-Seared Steak With Red Wine Sauce image

You can use any cut of steak, either bone-in or boneless, to make this classic French bistro dish. Steaks cut from the tenderloin, such as filet mignon, are the most tender pieces of beef, though they lack the assertively beefy chew of sirloins and rib steaks. Adding brandy to the pan sauce not only contributes flavor; its high alcohol content and acidity help extract flavor from the pan drippings. However, if setting it on fire makes you nervous, skip that step and let the brandy simmer down for an extra few minutes to cook off most of the alcohol. Make sure to open a good bottle of red wine to use in the sauce here, preferably one that you're happy to finish off with dinner. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Categories     dinner, steaks and chops, main course

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Kosher salt, as needed
Freshly ground black pepper, as needed
1 1/2 pounds boneless steak, or 1 3/4 pounds bone-in steak (1 1/2 inches thick)
2 shallots
2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon neutral oil, such as grapeseed
2 tablespoons good brandy, preferably Cognac
1/3 cup dry red wine
1/3 cup beef or chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 tablespoon chopped chives
Watercress, for serving

Steps:

  • Generously sprinkle salt and pepper all over steaks, then let steaks rest uncovered for 15 minutes at room temperature. Meanwhile, mince the shallots.
  • Melt 1/2 tablespoon butter and the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add steaks and cook until done to taste, about 3 to 4 minutes per side for rare and a little longer for medium-rare or medium. (Bone-in steaks take a few minutes longer to cook through than boneless.) If the pan begins to smoke or burn, lower the heat. Transfer steaks to a plate to rest while you prepare the sauce.
  • Add shallots to the skillet and cook over medium heat until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add brandy to the skillet and use a long-handled match or igniter to set the brandy on fire. (Stand back when you do this.) Let flames die out, then add red wine and cook until reduced and syrupy, 2 to 4 minutes. Add stock and boil until reduced and thickened, 3 to 4 minutes longer.
  • Remove pan from heat and whisk in remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the chives. Serve steaks and sauce immediately with watercress.

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 (4 to 6-ounce) filet mignons
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 1/2 cups dry red wine

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  • Generously season the steaks with salt and pepper and drizzle with the 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Grill to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board. Tent with foil and let stand 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt. Add the garlic and oregano and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Whisk in the wine. Simmer until the sauce reduces by half, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat. Strain the sauce into a small bowl, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids in the strainer and return the sauce to the saucepan and bring back to a slow simmer. Cut the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter into small 1/2-inch chunks and whisk in the sauce a little at a time. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper.
  • Place filets on each of 6 dinner plates. Drizzle the sauce over the filets and serve.

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use the best quality filet mignon you can find, as well as a good quality red wine for the reduction sauce.
  • Season the steak well: Season the steak generously with salt and pepper before cooking. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder or onion powder, if desired.
  • Cook the steak to your desired doneness: Filet mignon is a relatively tender cut of meat, so it can be cooked quickly. Cook it for 3-5 minutes per side for a medium-rare steak, or 5-7 minutes per side for a medium steak.
  • Make the red wine reduction sauce while the steak is cooking: This will allow the flavors to develop and meld together.
  • Let the steak rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Filet mignon with red wine reduction sauce is a classic dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is easy to make and absolutely delicious. By following these tips, you can create a perfect filet mignon that will impress your guests.
