6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¾ pounds Mushrooms; quartered
Butter-flavored cooking spray
¼ cup Chopped shallots
2 Garlic cloves; minced
2 teaspoons All-purpose flour
½ teaspoon Dried marjoram
teaspoon Pepper
10½ ounce Beef consommé; divided
2 tablespoons Minced fresh parsley
6 Beef tenderloin steaks; 1 inch thick, 4 ounces each
6 Sheets frozen phyllo dough; thawed
½ cup Sweet marsala
1 tablespoon Cornstarch; plus 1 1/2 teaspoons

Directions

Place mushrooms in a food processor; process until finely chopped.

Place a large skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add mushrooms, shallots, and garlic; sauté 2 minutes or until tender.

Stir in flour, marjoram, and pepper. Gradually add ¼ cup consommé; stir well. Cook 5 minutes or until liquid evaporates; stir constantly. (Mixture will be thick.) Remove from heat, and stir in parsley; set aside.

Preheat oven to 425°F. Trim fat from steaks. Place a large skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat until hot. Add steaks; cook 1½ minutes on each side or until browned. Drain on paper towels. Place steaks on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Drizzle ¼ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce over each steak; top each with 3 tablespoons mushroom mixture.

Layer 6 sheets of phyllo, spraying each lightly with cooking spray. Cut 6 (6 ½ x 4 ½-inch) rectangles. Thinly slice excess phyllo for topping.

Drape phyllo rectangle over each steak, tucking edges of phyllo under steak. Crumple phyllo strips into 6 balls; place one on top of each phyllo-wrapped steak. Lightly coat with cooking spray. Bake at 425° for 15 minutes or until desired degree of doneness.

Combine remaining consommé, wine, and cornstarch in a small saucepan, and stir well. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Serve with steaks.

Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 steak and ¼ cup sauce).
