Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2-ounce package dried morels, or 6 ounces fresh morels plus 1/2 cup beef broth
2 6-to 8-ounce beef tenderloin steaks
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter, divided
3/4 cup chopped green onions
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon dry Marsala

Steps:

  • If using dried morels, place in 2-cup measuring cup. Add enough hot water to reach 1 1/2-cup mark; let soak until soft, about 20 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup soaking liquid. Cut morels in half if large.

Pour sauce over steaks, sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon tarragon, and serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure the beef tenderloin cooks evenly, it's essential to bring it to room temperature before searing.
  • Sear the beef tenderloin over high heat to create a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a meat thermometer to accurately gauge the internal temperature of the beef tenderloin and ensure it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Allow the beef tenderloin to rest for a few minutes before slicing to let the juices redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful cut of meat.
  • When making the Marsala sauce, use a good quality Marsala wine for the best flavor.
  • Reduce the Marsala wine until it thickens slightly to create a rich and flavorful sauce.
  • Add some chopped fresh herbs, such as parsley or thyme, to the Marsala sauce for an extra layer of flavor.
  • Serve the beef tenderloin with the Marsala sauce, mashed potatoes, and roasted vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal.
