📋 Ingredients:

For the Filet Mignon:

  • 4 filet mignon steaks (about 6 oz each) 🥩
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil 🛢️
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 🧈
  • Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
  • Fresh thyme (optional for garnish) 🌿

For the Creamy Parmesan Mustard Sauce:

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 🌿
  • 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard 🌿
  • 1 cup heavy cream 🥛
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 🧀
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 🌿
  • Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish) 🌿

📝 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Filet Mignon:

  1. Season the steaks:
  • Pat the filet mignon steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
  1. Sear the steaks:
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter to the skillet. Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time to your preferred doneness.
  • Once cooked to your liking, remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest under foil.

2. Make the Creamy Parmesan Mustard Sauce:

  1. Sauté the garlic:
  • In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant, making sure not to burn it.
  1. Add cream and mustards:
  • Lower the heat to medium, then stir in the heavy cream, Dijon mustard, and whole grain mustard. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken slightly.
  1. Add Parmesan and seasonings:
  • Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Worcestershire sauce, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts and the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3. Serve:

  1. Plate the steaks:
  • Place the rested filet mignon steaks on plates and generously spoon the creamy Parmesan mustard sauce over the top.
  1. Garnish and serve:
  • Garnish with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired. Serve alongside roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad for a complete meal.
