Description

Fillet steak Diane with velvety sauce is a classic dish that combines tender fillet steak with a rich, creamy sauce made from brandy, Dijon mustard, and heavy cream, creating a delightful culinary experience.


Ingredients

  • Fillet steak: 2 pieces (about 6-8 oz each)
  • Dijon mustard: 2 tablespoons
  • Worcestershire sauce: 1 tablespoon
  • Shallots: 2, finely chopped
  • Garlic: 2 cloves, minced
  • Heavy cream: 1 cup
  • Brandy: 1/4 cup
  • Fresh parsley: 2 tablespoons, finely chopped (for garnish)
  • Salt: to taste
  • Pepper: to taste
  • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons (for cooking)

Instructions

  1. Take the fillet steaks out of the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking and season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and add chopped shallots, cooking until fragrant.
  3. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  4. Pour in the brandy to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any browned bits.
  5. Stir in Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce, then add heavy cream and let simmer until thickened.
  6. In the same skillet, sear the seasoned fillet steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare.
  7. Remove the steaks and let them rest before slicing.
  8. Serve the sliced steaks on plates and spoon the velvety sauce over the top, garnishing with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • Choose high-quality fillet steak for the best flavor and tenderness.
  • Let the sauce simmer longer for a thicker consistency if desired.
  • Consider adding mushrooms or herbs for variations in the sauce.
