Filet:
2 (4 to 6-ounce) petite filets of beef Pinch salt Pinch freshly ground black pepper 6 tablespoons olive oil
Gorgonzola and Porcini
Mushroom Sauce:
6 tablespoons olive oil 1/2-pound (about 1 cup) dried porcini mushrooms, soaked and strained 2 shallot, sliced (about 2 tablespoons) 2 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves 1/2 cup dry white wine 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 6 ounces (about 3 tablespoons) Gorgonzola 1 cup mayonnaise 2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
For the beef:
Preheat
the oven to 350 degrees F.
Sprinkle both sides of
the beef with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe medium
skillet over high heat. When the oil is hot, carefully place the filet in the
pan. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes a side. Transfer
the steak to the oven and bake until a meat thermometer reads 130 degrees F.
for medium-rare, about 7 to 8 minutes (may change with ovens). Remove the
beef from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
For
the sauce:
Heat
the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and the
shallots and cook until golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme,
white wine, salt, and pepper and continue to cook until all of the liquid has
evaporated, about 5 more minutes.
Meanwhile, put the
Gorgonzola, mayonnaise, and mustard in a food processor and combine until
smooth. Transfer the Gorgonzola mixture to the skillet with mushrooms and
shallots. Gently stir the cheese mixture into the mushroom mixture.
Slice the beef and
serve topped with a dollop of the cheese sauce. Reserve leftover sauce for
another use.
