Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Start by gently patting your filet steaks dry with paper towels. This will help you achieve that golden brown crust.
- Rub the steaks with olive oil, seasoning generously with salt and pepper.
Cooking the Steaks
- In a heavy skillet or cast iron pan, heat over medium-high heat. Add a splash of olive oil and once it shimmers, carefully place the seasoned filet steaks in the pan.
- Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time to meet your preferred doneness.
- Transfer steaks to a plate and tent with foil to keep warm.
Preparing the Topping
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, toss in the sliced mushrooms and cook until they’re golden brown, about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.
Making the Cream Sauce
- Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine.
- Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes until thickened slightly.
- Stir in the fresh herbs, ensuring they’re evenly mixed throughout.
Serving
- Drizzle the creamy mushroom sauce over the steaks before serving.
- Enjoy your restaurant-worthy meal with your favorite side dishes!
Notes
Rest steaks for at least 5 minutes after cooking to allow juices to redistribute. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
