FIVE STAR FILET MIGNON STUFFED WITH MUSHROOMS & ONIONS RECIPE - (4.8/5)



Five Star Filet Mignon Stuffed with Mushrooms & Onions Recipe - (4.8/5) image

Provided by á-85084

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/4 cup (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1 Vidalia onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
4 cups diced portobello mushrooms (about 2 large mushrooms)
1/2 cup dry white wine
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Six 8-ounce filet mignon steaks (about 2 inches thick)
Olive oil, for brushing
Bearnaise Sauce, recipe follows
1/4 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon, finely chopped
2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
1 clove garlic, minced
1 shallot, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, at room temperature
4 egg yolks
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to medium-high. Melt the butter over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the onions and rosemary and cook until the onions are slightly translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until the mushrooms are soft and most of the juices have evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour in the wine and simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cut a deep pocket horizontally into each steak. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Stuff each pocket with about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the mushroom mixture, reserving the remaining mushroom mixture for serving. Skewer with toothpicks to close. Brush the steaks with olive oil. Place the steaks in a grill basket (this way any filling that falls out during cooking won't fall into the fire). Transfer the basket to the grill. Close the cover and cook to desired doneness, 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes on a platter or cutting board Serve the steaks with the remaining mushroom mixture and the Bearnaise Sauce. BERNAISE SAUCE: Combine the wine, half the tarragon, the vinegar, garlic, shallots and some salt and pepper in a sauté pan over medium-low heat. Cook until reduced by half. Transfer to a medium metal bowl. Start to whisk the wine mixture in the bowl while adding the butter in increments. (Do not stop whisking throughout this whole process.) Temper the eggs so they do not scramble and add them to the bowl. The sauce will look glossy and thick. Whisk in the lemon juice, if using. Taste for seasoning.

Tips:

  • To ensure even cooking, bring the filet mignon to room temperature before cooking.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut a pocket into the filet mignon. This will help the stuffing stay in place.
  • Don't overstuff the filet mignon. Otherwise, it will be difficult to cook evenly.
  • If you are using a delicate stuffing, such as crab or shrimp, be careful not to overcook the filet mignon. Otherwise, the stuffing will become tough.
  • Serve the stuffed filet mignon immediately after cooking. This will help to keep the stuffing moist and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Stuffed filet mignon is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home. Just be sure to follow the tips above to ensure that your filet mignon turns out perfectly.
