Makes: 2 servings

Pan Seared Tenderloin Steak with Sauce
Ingredients
  • 2 beef tenderloin steaks, cut about 3/4 inch thick
  • 5 tablespoons  cold unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup  dry red wine or apple juice
  • 1/4 cup  reduced-sodium beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons  finely onion or 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon  whipping cream (no substitutes)
  • Salt
  • Pepper
Directions

1. Heat a large stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter; reduce heat to medium. Cook steaks about 3 minutes per side or until medium rare (145 degrees F). Transfer steaks to a platter. Cover with foil; let stand for 5 minutes while preparing sauce.

2. Drain fat from skillet. Add wine, beef broth, and onion to the hot skillet. Using a whisk, stir and scrape up any browned bits in the bottom of the skillet. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes or until liquid is reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Reduce heat to medium low.

3. Stir in cream; stir in the remaining 4 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until butter is melted and sauce has thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve sauce over steak.
