Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 quart low-sodium beef stock
Four 6 to 8-ounce filet mignons
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 cups thinly sliced cremini mushrooms
2 shallots, sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup brandy
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Pairs well with: cabernet
  • Add the beef stock to a saucepan and reduce over medium-high heat to 1/2 cup, about 1 hour.
  • Sprinkle the steaks on both sides with the salt and pepper. In a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter and the olive oil. When the butter has melted and the oil shimmers, add the steaks. Brown the steaks on both sides, 3 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a plate and set aside, lightly covered with foil.
  • Add the mushrooms and shallots to the pan and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, adding oil if needed. Add the garlic. When the garlic is lightly colored, add the brandy (be careful, it can ignite). Add the wine, mustard, Worcestershire and the reduced beef stock. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes more. Return the steaks to the pan and finish cooking them to the desired temperature, 2 to 4 minutes, depending upon the size of the filets and desired temperature/doneness. For medium-rare, cook to 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to the sauce to melt.
  • To serve, place a steak on each plate and pour the sauce over the steak.

Time 37m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 (2-inch-thick) filets mignons, tied (10 ounces each)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons fine fleur de sel
2 tablespoons coarsely cracked black peppercorns
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pat dry the filets mignons with paper towels. Brush the filets lightly all over with the oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the filets on all sides in the mixture, pressing lightly to help the salt and pepper adhere. The steaks should be evenly coated with the salt and pepper.
  • When the pan is extremely hot, add the steaks and sear evenly on all sides (top, bottom, and sides) for about 2 minutes per side. (Be sure the cooking area is well ventilated.) You'll probably need about 3 turns to sear the sides and about 10 minutes total.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and arrange all the filets flat in the pan. Top each with a tablespoon of butter, then place the pan in the oven. Cook the filets for 8 to 12 minutes to 120 degrees for rare and 125 degrees for medium-rare. Remove the steaks to a platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

STEAK DIANE



Steak Diane image

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Four 6-ounce filet mignon steaks
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon salted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 shallot, chopped
1/4 cup brandy
1/4 cup beef broth
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Chopped fresh chives, for garnish

Steps:

  • Flatten the steaks with a meat mallet so they are about 1 1/2 inches thick. Season the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
  • Heat the olive oil and butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and the butter has melted, add the steaks and sear until well browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Set the steaks aside on a plate.
  • To the same pan, add the garlic and shallot and cook, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any of the flavorsome steak residue into the mixture, for about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully add the brandy. (If the pan ignites, stand back and allow the flame to disappear, which it will in a few seconds.) Return the pan to the heat and bring to a simmer, scraping the bottom of the pan again. Simmer until the brandy is almost totally reduced, about 2 minutes. Add the broth, cream, mustard and Worcestershire sauce and stir to combine, then cook for a minute to thicken.
  • Plate up the steak and pour over the sauce. Garnish with the parsley and chives and serve immediately.

STEAK DIANE



Steak Diane image

When planning the Delmonico reopening, we wanted to bring back the tableside service that was so popular in dining rooms long ago. Steak Diane is one of those dishes we were proud to include in this tableside repertoire. Supposedly named for the Roman goddess of the hunt, Diana (or Diane) style was originally a way of serving venison. Through the years, though, the preparation has come to mean sauteing thinly sliced or pounded filet mignon in butter and then flambeing and basting it in a rich Cognac sauce. Steak Diane takes me back to my Commander's Palace days, when this was a favorite lunch dish of proprietor Dick Brennan. Once we put it on the menu at Delmonico, it quickly became a favorite of a new generation of New Orleanians, including one of our regular diners, Glenn Vesch. These filets are cooked to medium-rare. If you want your meat more done, slightly increase the initial cooking times.

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

4 (3-ounce) filet mignon medallions
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 teaspoons minced shallots
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup sliced white mushroom caps
1/4 cup Cognac or brandy
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup reduced veal stock, recipe follows
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 drops hot red pepper sauce
1 tablespoon finely chopped green onions
1 teaspoon minced parsley leaves
4 pounds veal bones with some meat attached, sawed into 2-inch pieces (have the butcher do this)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups coarsely chopped yellow onions
1 cup coarsely chopped carrots
1 cup coarsely chopped celery
5 garlic cloves, peeled and smashed
1/4 cup tomato paste
6 quarts water
4 bay leaves
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups dry red wine

Steps:

  • Season the beef medallions on both sides with the salt and pepper.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the meat and cook for 45 seconds on the first side. Turn and cook for 30 seconds on the second side. Add the shallots and garlic to the side of the pan and cook, stirring, for 20 seconds. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until soft, 2 minutes. Place the meat on a plate and cover to keep warm.
  • Tilt the pan towards you and add the brandy. Tip the pan away from yourself and ignite the brandy with a match. (Alternatively, remove the pan from the heat to ignite, and then return to the heat.) When the flame has burned out, add the mustard and cream, mix thoroughly and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the veal stock and simmer for 1 minute. Add the Worcestershire and hot sauce and stir to combine. Return the meat and any accumulated juices to the pan and turn the meat to coat with the sauce.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the green onions and parsley. Divide the medallions and sauce between 2 large plates and serve immediately.
  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Place the bones in a large roasting pan and toss with the oil. Roast, turning occasionally, until golden brown, about 1 hour.
  • Remove from the oven and spread the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic over the bones. Smear the tomato paste over the vegetables and return the pan to the oven. Roast for another 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and pour off the fat from the pan.
  • Transfer the bones and vegetables to a large stockpot. Do not discard the juices in the roasting pan. Add the water, bay leaves, thyme, salt, and peppercorns to the stockpot and bring to a boil.
  • Meanwhile, place the roasting pan over two burners on medium-high heat. Add the wine and stir with a heavy wooden spoon to deglaze and dislodge any browned bits clinging to the bottom of the pan. Add the contents to the stockpot. When the liquid returns to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 8 hours, skimming occasionally to remove any foam that rises to the surface.
  • Ladle through a fine-mesh strainer into a large clean pot. Bring to a boil, reduce to a gentle boil, and cook, uncovered, until reduced to 6 cups in volume, about 1 hour. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove any congealed fat from the surface of the stock. The stock can be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen in airtight containers for up to 2 months.

FAMOUS 21 CLUB'S STEAK DIANE



Famous 21 Club's Steak Diane image

I have several recipes for Steak Diane, and this one is from the 21 Club. Cooks Notes: Use the best steak you can afford, from a good butcher.

Provided by NcMysteryShopper

Categories     Steak

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

16 ounces sirloin strip steaks or 16 ounces filet mignon
salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
3 tablespoons finely minced shallots
6 tablespoons cognac or 6 tablespoons other good brandy, divided
2 tablespoons dry white wine or 2 tablespoons dry vermouth
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (preferably imported)
2 tablespoons A.1. Original Sauce or 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup beef broth
2 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons finely snipped chives

Steps:

  • Trim all outside fat off the steak. The steak should now weigh about 12 ounces.
  • Cut the steak in half horizontally, creating 2 6-ounce steaks.
  • Pound the steaks lightly to flatten them to 1/4-inch thick. Season them on both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Heat a 12-inch skillet until a drop of water dances on the surface.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of the butter. As soon as the foam subsides, add the seasoned meat.
  • Cook on each side for 1 minute. Remove to a plate. Immediately adjust the heat under the pan to low.
  • Add the second tablespoon of butter and the shallots. Sauté the shallots for 1 minute.
  • Increase the heat to high. Add 3 tablespoons cognac and flambé, if desired.
  • Add the wine, and with a wooden spoon, scrape up any browning in the pan (deg laze the pan). Stir in the mustard and A-1 sauce.
  • Cook for about a minute, or until the liquid is reduced to a syrup. Add the broth and continue to boil for about a minute, until reduced to a few tablespoons.
  • Add the cream and stir well to incorporate. Boil a few seconds.
  • Taste for seasoning and add freshly ground pepper to taste. Add the remaining cognac and ignite. When the flames die down, stir in the chives, taste for salt and pepper, and adjust if necessary.
  • Add the reserved steaks and their juices (that have accumulated on the plate) to the simmering sauce.
  • Turn the steaks in the sauce a couple of times, as the sauce reduces a little more. Place the steaks on individual plates.
  • Divide the sauce on the steaks. Serve with mashed potatoes or brown rice, and some bread to mop up the sauce.

STEAK DIANE FOR TWO



Steak Diane for Two image

Though you can follow this procedure with almost any tender cut of beef (and with chicken breasts, if that direction appeals to you), it's a perfect treatment for tenderloin medallions (filet mignon).

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, main course

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 (6-ounce) beef fillets, cut from the tenderloin (filet mignon), preferably not too lean
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon minced shallot or onion
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, or to taste
1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
Lemon juice, to taste (optional)
Chopped fresh chives or parsley leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Flatten fillets a bit with the palm of your hand, the back of a skillet or a small mallet; they should be about 1-inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and a lot of pepper. In small skillet, preferably one just large enough to hold fillets, combine oil and tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. When butter foam melts, sear steaks on both sides, just until browned, no more than 2 minutes a side. Remove to platter.
  • Wipe pan clean with towel; add remaining butter over medium heat, with shallot or onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in mustard, Worcestershire and cream. Add some salt and a fair amount of pepper. Stir once or twice, then taste and adjust seasoning.
  • Keeping mixture at a steady simmer, return meat and accumulated juices to pan. Cook, turning two or three times, until meat is done to your liking (125 degrees internal temperature for medium-rare). Remove to a plate, and add lemon juice, if using, salt and pepper to the sauce as needed. Spoon sauce over meat, garnish with chives or parsley, and serve.

STEAKHOUSE STEAK FROM BAREFOOT CONTESSA



Steakhouse Steak from Barefoot Contessa image

Wow, what a wonderful special occasion entree! I love many of Ina Garten's recipes. You can use grey sea salt if desired or even Kosher salt, but cut back if using Kosher salt. Also Maytag cheese can be used instead of the Roquefort. We served this with a side of sauteed mushrooms, roasted asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes. Yummmmy!!! Total cooking and prep time is 70 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients, especially for the steak. Look for a well-marbled cut of meat, such as ribeye or strip steak.
  • Tenderize the steak before cooking. This will help to break down the connective tissue and make the steak more tender.
  • Cook the steak over high heat to get a good sear. This will help to lock in the juices and flavor.
  • Baste the steak with butter and herbs while it is cooking. This will help to keep the steak moist and flavorful.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to redistribute the juices and make the steak more tender.
  • Serve the steak with a simple sauce, such as a béarnaise or peppercorn sauce.

Conclusion:

Steak Diane is a classic French dish that is sure to impress your guests. It is a relatively simple dish to make, but it does require some attention to detail. By following these tips, you can ensure that your Steak Diane is cooked to perfection.
