You can't go wrong with this one! A guaranteed crowd pleaser. I have cooked this several ways and it has always come out awesome. My favorite way is to smoke the steaks for 30 minutes or so to get all that flavor in them and then cook them outside on the grill. I usually then transfer them to a cast iron griddle and add the blue...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 Tbsp butter
1/2 c minced white onion
3 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh thyme, chopped fine
3/4 c low sodium beef broth
1/2 c port wine
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
4 filet mignon steaks (1 1/2 inch thick)
3/4 c crumbled blue cheese
1/4 c panko bread crumbs

Steps:

  • 1. 1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring constantly, until onion is tender. Stir in the beef broth, scraping any onion bits from the bottom of the pan, then stir in the port wine. Bring to a boil, and cook until the mixture has reduced to about 1/2 cup. Set aside. This may also be made ahead of time, and reheated.
  • 2. 2. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Heat oil in a cast-iron or other oven-safe skillet over high heat. Sear steaks quickly on both sides until brown, then place the whole pan into the oven.
  • 3. 3. Roast steaks in the oven for about 15 minutes for medium rare - with an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). You may adjust this time to allow the steaks to finish just below your desired degree of doneness if medium is not what you prefer. Remove from the oven, and place on a baking sheet. Stir together the panko crumbs and blue cheese. Top each steak with a layer of this mixture.
  • 4. 4. Preheat the oven's broiler. Place steaks under the preheated broiler until the cheese topping is browned and bubbly. 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let stand for at least 15 minutes before serving. Serve with warm port wine sauce.

The steak was a bit overcooked for my taste, but the blue cheese crust was delicious. I would recommend cooking the steak for a shorter amount of time if you prefer it more rare.
