Ingredients
4
Servings
  • 2 beef tenderloins, thick (about 12 ounces each)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil, for brushing the meat
  • 1 pinch ground pepper
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons shallot, chopped
  • 1/2 kilos wild mushroom, assorted

  • With a napkin, pat the beef steaks dry. Brush with a little olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Place a pan that can fit both steaks over medium-high heat until very hot (wait about 2-3 minutes). Cook each steak for about 2-3 minutes on each side (to be medium rare)*** Place the seared steaks on a plate and cover with aluminum foil.
  • In the same pan where the meat was seared, add 2-3 tablespoons of butter. Melt the butter and cook the shallots until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 5 minutes, until they have released their liquid. Add the wine and with a wooden spoon, scrape the meat residue left in the pan (it’s full of flavor). Wait until the wine has evaporated almost completely.
  • Add the reduced beef broth to the pan and wait for it to boil. Let it reduce until it reaches the right consistency.
  • Slice the beef steaks thinly at an angle and serve them with the sauce on top.
  • Serve the meat with an arugula salad dressed with olive oil and lemon.
