Provided by cdagirl

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Beef     Steaks     Filet Mignon Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups strawberries, sliced
¼ cup brown sugar
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 (6 ounce) filet mignon (beef tenderloin)
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chilled butter
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Mix together the strawberries, brown sugar, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl, and allow to sit for 1 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.
  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Heat olive oil in an oven-safe, heavy steel or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Sprinkle the filets with salt and pepper on both sides, gently place in the hot skillet, and sear each side until well-browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Slide the skillet into the preheated oven, and cook until they start to become firm and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Transfer the steaks to a platter, and tent with foil to rest.
  • Pour steak juices from the skillet into a small saucepan. Strain the strawberries and discard the liquid. Add the strawberries to the steak juices, bring the sauce to a simmer over medium-low heat, and melt the butter into the sauce, tilting the pan several times to gently incorporate the butter into the sauce. Serve each fillet topped with about 1/2 cup of strawberries and a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.

2kg stewing beef , cut into large chunks
250ml bottle balsamic vinegar

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Use a center-cut beef tenderloin or filet mignon for the best results. These cuts are known for their tenderness and flavor.
  • Sear the beef properly: Searing the beef helps to lock in its juices and create a flavorful crust. Make sure to sear the beef over high heat for a short amount of time on each side.
  • Don't overcook the beef: Filet mignon is a very tender cut of beef, so it's important not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and chewy. Cook the beef to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, or 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Make sure the chocolate balsamic sauce is properly reduced: The chocolate balsamic sauce should be reduced until it has a thick, syrupy consistency. This will help it to coat the beef evenly and provide a rich, flavorful glaze.
  • Serve the beef immediately: Filet mignon is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that it is tender and juicy.

Conclusion:

Filet mignon with chocolate balsamic sauce is a luxurious and delicious dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tender beef, rich chocolate sauce, and tangy balsamic vinegar combine to create a flavor profile that is both unique and unforgettable. If you're looking for a truly special meal, this recipe is definitely worth trying.
