Ingredients
Scale
- 4 filet mignon steaks (6 oz each)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp whole grain mustard
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the filet mignon steaks generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add butter and minced garlic, cooking for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, and paprika. Whisk the sauce and cook until it thickens (3-4 minutes).
- Return the steaks to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- Adjust cooking time based on steak thickness and preferred doneness.
- For a milder mustard flavor, reduce the amount of Dijon or whole grain mustard.
- Serve with mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
- Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
