INGREDIENTS

  • Main Ingredients

    • 🍓 2 cups strawberries, sliced
    • ¼ cup brown sugar
    • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 🥩 4 (6 ounce) filet mignon (beef tenderloin)
    • 🧂 salt and pepper to taste
    • 🧈 1 tablespoon chilled butter
    • freshly ground black pepper to taste

STEPS

1

Mix together the strawberries, brown sugar, and balsamic vinegar in a bowl. Allow to sit for 1 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally.

2

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

3

Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over high heat. Sprinkle filets with salt and pepper, then sear each side until well-browned, 1 to 2 minutes per side.

4

Slide the skillet into the oven and cook until the center is reddish-pink, about 10 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into the center reads 130°F (54°C). Rest steaks on a platter tented with foil.

5

Strain the strawberries and discard the liquid. Pour steak juices into a saucepan, add strawberries, and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat. Melt butter into the sauce, gently incorporating it by tilting the pan.

6

Serve each filet topped with 1/2 cup of the strawberry sauce and a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper.
