Red wine beef and mushrooms is a delectable and sophisticated dish that marries the robust flavors of tender beef fillets and earthy mushrooms with the richness of red wine. Perfect for a special occasion or a memorable dinner, this recipe is sure to impress your guests with its depth of flavor and elegant presentation.
Instructions:
- Start by preparing all your ingredients. Slice the mushrooms, finely chop the chives, mince the garlic cloves, and chop the fresh thyme. Set aside.
- Season the beef fillets generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the beef fillets to the skillet. Cook them for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
- Transfer the cooked beef fillets to a plate and cover with aluminum foil to keep them warm.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
- Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-6 minutes or until they are golden brown and tender.
- Lower the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and chopped thyme to the mushrooms. Stir for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
- Pour in the red wine and vinegar. Stir well to deglaze the pan, scraping up any brown bits stuck to the bottom of the skillet.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for about 3-5 minutes, or until the liquid is reduced by half.
- Return the beef fillets to the skillet, spooning some of the mushroom and wine sauce over them.
- Let the fillets cook in the sauce for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Sprinkle the finely chopped chives over the beef and mushroom mixture.
- Serve the beef fillets hot with a generous amount of the mushroom and red wine sauce. Pair with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad.
Tips:
- For the best results, use high-quality beef fillets and fresh mushrooms.
- Make sure to sear the beef fillets on high heat to lock in the juices and achieve a beautiful crust.
- Use a good quality red wine that you enjoy drinking, as the flavor will intensify during cooking.
- Allow the beef fillets to rest for a few minutes after cooking to ensure they remain juicy and tender.
- You can add a bit of beef broth to the sauce if you prefer a thinner consistency.
