Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 (6 ounce) beef tenderloin fillets
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
5 tablespoons butter
8 ounces portabella mushroom caps, sliced
1/3 cup dry red wine
1/2 cup sour cream
3 ounces Stilton cheese or 3 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 sprig fresh tarragon

Steps:

  • Rub the fillets with the chopped tarragon and pepper. Melt 2 TBS of the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the fillets and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on each side or to the desired degree of doneness. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
  • Melt the remaining 3 TBS butter in the skillet. Add the mushrooms. Saute for 3 to 4 minutes or until tender. Add the wine. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring to deglaze the skillet. Stir in the sour cream. Add 1/4 cup of the cheese. Cook until melted, stirring constantly.
  • To serve, drizzle the sauce over the fillets. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Garnish with sprigs of tarragon.
