Ingredients

  • Sal y pimienta al gusto
  • 2 cucharadas de mostaza de Dijon
  • 200 ml de crema de leche
  • 2 piezas de filete mignon (aproximadamente 200 g cada una)
  • 50–60 g de queso parmesano rallado
  • 2 cucharadas de aceite de oliva
  • 2 dientes de ajo picados

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Precalienta una sartén grande a fuego medio-alto y añade 1 cucharada de aceite de oliva. Asegúrate de que los filetes estén a temperatura ambiente mientras la sartén se calienta.
  2. Step 2: Sazona generosamente los filetes por ambos lados con sal y pimienta. Esto realzará el sabor natural de la carne.
  3. Step 3: Coloca los filetes en la sartén caliente y cocina por 3-4 minutos de cada lado para un punto medio. Deja que se doren bien y desprendan un aroma delicioso.
  4. Step 4: Retira los filetes y en la misma sartén añade 2 cucharadas de aceite de oliva junto con el ajo picado. Saltea hasta que el ajo libere su fragancia.
  5. Step 5: Añade las 2 cucharadas de mostaza de Dijon y los 200 ml de crema de leche. Mezcla suavemente, removiendo continuamente para integrar bien los sabores hasta obtener una salsa sedosa.
  6. Step 6: Incorpora 50-60 g de queso parmesano rallado y sigue removiendo hasta que el queso se derrita por completo, aportando un sabor intenso y cremoso a la salsa.
  7. Step 7: Vuelve a poner los filetes en la sartén y cubre cada uno con la salsa cremosa utilizando una cuchara. Sirve inmediatamente para disfrutar de la combinación perfecta entre la carne jugosa y la rica salsa.

Tips & Variations

  • Para un toque extra, añade una pizca de pimienta negra recién molida a la salsa justo antes de servir.
  • Si quieres un sabor más intenso, prueba agregar una cucharadita de vino blanco seco a la salsa durante la cocción.
  • Esta salsa también combina muy bien con pechuga de pollo o cerdo si prefieres una alternativa al filete mignon.

Storage

Guarda las sobras en un recipiente hermético en el refrigerador hasta por 2 días. Para recalentar, calienta suavemente en una sartén a fuego bajo para evitar que la salsa se corte. Es mejor consumir fresco para mantener la textura jugosa del filete.

How to Serve

Two thick, round steaks with a dark, crispy crust covered in coarse spices and herbs sit on a white plate. Each steak is topped with a smooth, creamy light yellow sauce dotted with small green herbs and red chili flakes, some of which drips down the sides pooling on the white marbled surface beneath. A fresh sprig of rosemary stands upright between the steaks, adding a touch of green freshness. The texture of the steaks shows a juicy, slightly pink center visible near the edges, contrasting with the well-seared, textured outer layer. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

¿Puedo usar otro tipo de queso en lugar del parmesano?

Sí, quesos duros y aromáticos como el pecorino o el gruyere pueden funcionar bien, aunque el parmesano proporciona un sabor clásico y equilibrado.

¿Cómo saber si el filete está en punto medio?

Después de cocinar 3-4 minutos por lado a fuego medio-alto, el interior debe estar caliente y ligeramente rosado. Puedes usar un termómetro de cocina; el punto medio está alrededor de 57-63°C (135-145°F).

Ingredients

Scale

Beef and Seasoning

  • 2 pieces of filet mignon (approximately 200 g each)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 200 ml heavy cream
  • 5060 g grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare the Base: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Make sure the filet mignon pieces are at room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking.
  2. Season the Filets: Generously sprinkle salt and pepper over both sides of the filet mignon pieces, evenly coating to enhance their natural flavor.
  3. Cook the Filets: Place the filets into the hot skillet. Sear them for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Watch for a golden brown crust and savor the wonderful aroma filling the kitchen.
  4. Prepare the Creamy Sauce: Remove the filets from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant and aromatic.
  5. Add Mustard and Cream: Stir in the Dijon mustard and heavy cream. Gently mix without stopping to combine the flavors and develop a silky, enveloping texture.

  7. Combine and Serve: Return the filets to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over each piece to coat lovingly. Serve immediately, enjoying the balance of juicy beef with the luscious sauce.

Notes

  • Letting the filets reach room temperature before cooking helps achieve even cooking.
  • Adjust the cooking time slightly to reach preferred doneness if needed.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor and smooth melting.
  • The sauce can be kept warm on low heat but is best served immediately.
