Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound beef tenderloin
  • to taste salt
  • to taste pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons butter divided
  • 8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning or Herbs de Provence
  • 1/4 cup chicken/beef broth or apple vinegar (dry white or apple juice)
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream

Method
 

  1. Trim excess fat and remove the silver skin from the beef tenderloin. Cut into 1-inch thick medallions and season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil and one tablespoon of butter. Sear beef medallions for about three minutes on each side until browned.
  3. Transfer beef to a plate. In the same skillet, add two tablespoons of butter and sliced mushrooms. Cook for 5-6 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Stir in minced garlic, Dijon mustard, Italian seasoning, and broth or vinegar. Allow to bubble for about a minute.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream and let it bubble gently for another minute while stirring continuously.
  6. Add seared beef back into the pan and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until heated through and coated in sauce.
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper before serving immediately over rice, pasta, or alongside roasted vegetables.
