Time 35m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons butter
¼ cup finely chopped shallots
1 pound assorted mushrooms, cut into pieces
1 cup port wine
¼ cup coarse-ground Dijon mustard
1 (14 ounce) can beef broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon cold butter

Steps:

  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the shallots, and cook for 2 minutes to soften slightly. Add the mushrooms, and continue cooking until the mushrooms have released their liquid and are tender. Remove the mushrooms from the skillet and set aside.
  • Pour the port wine into the skillet and bring to a boil over high heat. Boil until the port has reduced and is almost syrupy, 5 to 7 minutes. Whisk in the mustard and beef broth. Dissolve the cornstarch into the water, and whisk into the boiling sauce. Stir until the sauce has thickened, about 30 seconds. Remove the skillet from the heat, and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon butter until it has melted into the sauce. Stir the cooked mushrooms back into the sauce and serve.

1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/3 cup port wine or 1/3 cup other sweet red wine
1/4 cup minced shallot
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 cup beef broth
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon tomato paste
1/8 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
4 (4 ounce) beef tenderloin steaks (about 1 inch thick)
1 tablespoon black peppercorns, crushed
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

Tips:

  • To make a flavorful sauce, use a combination of fresh and dried mushrooms.

  • Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
