1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 pounds Fillet mignon; or fillet mignon tips, cut into thin strips
3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
¾ cup Onion; finely chopped
1 pounds Mushroom caps; small/white, clean and halved
2¼ teaspoon All-purpose flour
⅓ cup Beef stock; or canned broth
⅓ cup Whipping cream
½ cup Sour cream
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1½ tablespoon Fresh dill; chopped
1½ tablespoon Fresh parsley; chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Directions

1. Heat a large, heavy skillet preferably cast iron over high heat. Add the meat a few pieces at a time, and quickly sear on all sides, stirring all the time with a wooden spoon for 3 to 4 minutes. If the meat throws off too much liquid, drain it off and set aside. Remove the meat from the skillet and set aside.

2. Melt butter in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and saute for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until softened. Increase the heat to medium-high, then add the mushrooms and saute, stirring frequently until they are deeply colored; this will take about 20 minutes.

Turn the heat down to medium-low. Sprinkle in the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring all the while. 3. Stir in the stock, heavy cream, sour cream, mustard, and the meat juices, if any. Simmer over low heat until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes; do not allow to boil.

4. Return the meat to the skillet, stir to coat with the sauce, and heat for 1 minute. Stir in the dill, parsley, salt, and pepper. Serve at once.
