Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Beef Fillet: Pat the beef fillet dry with paper towels. Season it on both sides with the black pepper, pressing gently so the pepper adheres to the meat.
- Mushrooms: Clean and slice the mushrooms if not already sliced.
- Heat the Pan: In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Cook the Steaks: Add the seasoned fillet steaks to the pan. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes, depending on your preferred level of doneness (3 minutes per side for rare, 4 minutes for medium-rare). Adjust timing for thicker steaks.
- Rest the Meat: Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a plate and cover them loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm. Let them rest while preparing the mushrooms.
- Same Pan: In the same pan, add the sliced mushrooms. If necessary, add a bit more olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Mushrooms: Sauté the mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and tender.
- Add Beef Broth: Pour in the beef broth. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and let the broth simmer until it reduces slightly and coats the mushrooms, about 2-3 minutes.
- Slice the beef fillet into thick slices on a cutting board.
- Arrange the fillet slices on plates and top with the sautéed mushrooms and pan sauce.
- Serve immediately, perhaps with a side of vegetables or a fresh green salad.
Tips:
- Make sure your beef fillet is at room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking throughout.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or cast iron pan to get a good sear on your steaks.
- Let the steaks rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
- Use a mix of mushroom varieties to add depth and complexity to the dish.
- Deglaze the pan with beef broth after sautéing the mushrooms to create a flavorful sauce to pour over the steaks.
And there you have it - a sumptuous meal of Peppered Fillet Steaks with Sautéed Mushrooms that is sure to delight. The steps are simple, but the result is a restaurant-quality dish that will leave everyone wanting more. Enjoy your cooking, and more importantly, enjoy your meal!
