Prepare the Steaks:
Season the filet mignon steaks generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Cook the Steaks:
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add the steaks and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest on a plate.
Make the Sauce:
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add Dijon mustard and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer, then mix in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the Steaks:
Return the steaks to the skillet for a minute to reheat and coat them in the sauce. Plate the filet mignon and drizzle with the creamy Parmesan mustard sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your delicious Filet Mignon with Creamy Parmesan Mustard Sauce!
Tips:
Steak Doneness: Use a meat thermometer for accurate cooking: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium.
Sauce Variations: Add a splash of white wine or lemon juice to the sauce for added acidity and flavor.
Serving Suggestions: Pair with roasted vegetables or garlic mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
