Ingredients
  

For the Steak

  • 4 pieces Filet Mignon Substitutes: ribeye or New York strip
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Freshly Ground Black Pepper

For the Sauce

  • 8 ounces Baby Bella Mushrooms Substitutes: cremini or button mushrooms
  • 3 cloves Garlic Fresh, minced
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour Can use gluten-free flour
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme Can use dried thyme
  • 1 cup Marsala Wine Substitutes: dry sherry or port
  • 1 cup Beef Broth Substitutes: vegetable broth
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Substitutes: plant-based cream

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Pat dry each filet mignon and season generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Let them rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes.
  • Thinly slice your baby Bella mushrooms and finely chop the garlic.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine all-purpose flour with garlic powder and onion powder. Lightly coat the steaks with the mixture, shaking off any excess flour.
  • Heat unsalted butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and cover to keep warm.
  • In the same pan, add the sliced mushrooms and sauté until golden, about 5 minutes. Then add garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional minute.
  • Pour in the Marsala wine, scrape brown bits from the pan, and let simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the beef broth and let simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Mix in the heavy cream.
  • Return the steaks to the pan to heat through, drape the sauce over the top, and serve.

Notes

Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs for a beautiful presentation. Adjust seasoning after reheating if necessary.
