Title: Empty Nest Filets
Categories: Beef, Mushrooms, Booze
Yield: 2 Servings
2 Filets mignon
1/2 lb Cremini mushrooms; sliced
1 Shallot; minced
2 tb Butter
Fresh ground black pepper
1/2 c Brandy
Place a heavy frying pan over medium heat and let it heat
up. Add the butter and tip the pan so the butter sizzles
but doesn't burn. Add the shallot and cook briefly until
it softens, then add the mushrooms and cook until they're
just short of done.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the mushrooms from the pan,
leaving the butter and mushroom juice. Turn the heat to
high. Add the steaks and sear on both sides. (This recipe
will produce rare to medium-rare steaks; if you or your
date likes - shudder - well-done beef, you can butterfly
that steak, put it in the pan first, and cook it with a
cover on until it's done through before you add the good
steak.).
Remove the steaks from the pan. Add the brandy and a lot
of black pepper, and cook down until it's syrupy.
Put the steaks and the mushrooms back in the pan and let
them all cook together for a few minutes, until the steaks
are done to your liking and hot through, and the flavors
have all blended.
