Instructions:
- Take the beef fillet out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature, about 20-30 minutes.
- Pat the beef fillet dry with paper towels. Season it generously on all sides with the black pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
- Carefully add the beef fillet to the skillet. Sear the beef for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until a crust forms and it reaches your desired level of doneness (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
- Remove the beef fillet from the skillet and let it rest on a plate covered loosely with foil to keep warm.
- In the same skillet, without cleaning it, add the sliced mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms for about 3-4 minutes or until they become soft and begin to brown.
- Pour in the beef broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Let the broth reduce slightly, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the chopped spinach to the skillet. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the spinach is wilted and well combined with the mushrooms and sauce.
- Slice the rested beef fillet into thick slices.
- Plate the slices of beef and spoon the mushroom and spinach sauce generously over the top.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose a high-quality beef fillet for the best flavor and tenderness.
- Let the steaks come to room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.
- Use freshly ground black pepper for a more robust flavor.
- Do not overcrowd the pan when searing the steaks; this helps achieve a good crust.
- Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes after cooking to let the juices redistribute.
- For a richer sauce, you can add a splash of cream or a knob of butter to the mushroom and spinach mixture.
There you have it—a delightful and indulgent dish that's surprisingly easy to prepare. The Steak with Mushroom and Spinach Sauce combines the best of both worlds: a succulent, perfectly seared steak and a creamy, flavorful sauce. It's a meal that's sure to become a favorite in your recipe collection. Enjoy!
