Petite Filet With Wasabi Cream Recipes

PETITE FILET WITH WASABI CREAM

Steps:

• For the wasabi cream: Combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, cilantro, heavy cream, wasabi, garlic and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Chill for 2 hours.
• For the petite filet: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Drizzle the steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Add the steaks to the skillet and sear quickly, about 1 minute per side. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 5 minutes.
• Serve with the wasabi cream.

PETITE FILET WITH GORGONZOLA AND PORCINI MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sprinkle both sides of the beef with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe medium skillet over high heat. When the oil is hot, carefully place the filet in the pan. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes a side. Transfer the steak to the oven and bake until a meat thermometer reads 130 degrees F. for medium-rare, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the beef from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and the shallots and cook until golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme, white wine, salt, and pepper and continue to cook until all of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the Gorgonzola, mayonnaise, and mustard in a food processor and combine until smooth. Transfer the Gorgonzola mixture to the skillet with mushrooms and shallots. Gently stir the cheese mixture into the mushroom mixture.
• Slice the beef and serve topped with a dollop of the cheese sauce. Reserve leftover sauce for another use.
