PORT WINE BALSAMIC FILET MIGNON



Port Wine Balsamic Filet Mignon image

Years ago, I studied abroad in the beautiful city of Florence, Italy. During my 6 months in Tuscany I didn't have one bad meal--even the gas station food was something special. One evening my friend and I decided to treat ourselves to a beautiful steak dinner (on our parents' dime might I add, "Thanks, Mom!"). When the filet mignon came to the table it was covered in a sauce so dark, thick and luscious it almost looked like dark chocolate. Maybe it was the vino I was drinking but after the first bite I cried, I actually cried. The flavors were everything I wanted in a dish--the perfect balance of buttery, acidic, sweet, savory and umami. It was in that moment that I knew I had to recreate this dish at home. After some research and several taste tests, I got it! Now this dish has become one of my husband's favorites and we enjoy it together every Valentine's Day. It's the perfect date night meal you are sure to enjoy!

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 cups ruby port
1/2 cup dry white wine
Two 8-ounce pieces filet mignon (tenderloin steak)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 tablespoons quality balsamic vinegar
Microgreens, for serving
1 bunch very thin asparagus, tough ends removed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 lemon
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring the port and white wine to a boil in a medium saucepan, lower the heat and simmer until the liquid has reduced to 2/3 cup.
  • Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper and lightly dust with flour on both sides. Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter. When the oil is hot, add the steaks to the skillet and top them with a few sprigs of thyme (just to get the essence). Cook for 4 minutes per side, or until they are cooked to your liking (see Cook's Note).
  • Remove the steaks from the pan and set them aside on a plate to rest. Remove the thyme and discard. Add the wine reduction to the same skillet (do not clean the skillet) and bring to a simmer over medium heat, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits.
  • Add the balsamic vinegar and simmer until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon, 2 to 5 minutes.
  • Turn off the heat and whisk in the remaining 2 tablespoons unsalted butter until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the steak and garnish with microgreens.
  • For the grilled asparagus: Toss the asparagus with 3 tablespoons olive oil, the juice from 1/2 a lemon and some salt and pepper. Heat a cast-iron grill pan over medium heat. When the pan is hot, grill the asparagus, turning occasionally, until it is tender and lightly charred, about 4 minutes. Season with more salt and a squeeze of lemon. Serve with the steak.

FILET MIGNON WITH BALSAMIC SYRUP & GOAT CHEESE image

Categories     Beef

Number Of Ingredients 1

1 1/2 cups balsamic vinegar 3 tablespoons sugar 2 tablespoons butter 6 (5 to 6-ounce) filet mignon steaks (each about 1-inch thick) Salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 ounces soft fresh goat cheese

Steps:

  • Boil the balsamic vinegar and sugar in a heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to 1/3 cup, stirring occasionally, about 18 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Melt the butter in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Cook the steaks to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a baking sheet. Crumble the cheese over the steaks and broil just until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with pepper. Transfer the steaks to plates. Drizzle the balsamic sauce around the steaks and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat: Filet mignon is a tender and flavorful cut of beef that is perfect for this recipe. Look for a piece of meat that is about 1 inch thick and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Cook the meat to your desired doneness: The cooking time for filet mignon will vary depending on the thickness of the meat and how you like it cooked. For a medium-rare steak, cook the meat for about 4 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook the meat for about 5 minutes per side.
  • Make sure the balsamic syrup is thick and flavorful: The balsamic syrup is a key component of this dish. To make sure it is thick and flavorful, reduce the balsamic vinegar over medium heat until it has thickened and become syrupy.
  • Use a good quality goat cheese: The goat cheese adds a creamy and tangy flavor to the dish. Use a good quality goat cheese that is fresh and flavorful.

Conclusion:

This filet mignon with balsamic syrup and goat cheese is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tender and flavorful steak is cooked to perfection and topped with a rich and flavorful balsamic syrup. The goat cheese adds a creamy and tangy flavor that complements the steak perfectly.
