Ingredients

  • 4 steaks filet mignon
  • 2 tbsp whole-grain mustard
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • to taste salt
  • to taste black pepper
  • 2 tbsp butter

Instructions

  1. 1
    Bring the filet mignon to room temperature to ensure even cooking.
  2. 2
    Season the filet mignon steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
  3. 3
    Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted, add the filet mignon steaks and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until a nice brown crust forms.
  4. 4
    Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and set aside on a plate to rest.

    Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the whole-grain mustard and Dijon mustard. Whisk until smooth.
  6. 6
    Pour in the heavy cream, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer and let cook for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
  7. 7
    Return the filet mignon to the skillet, spooning some of the mustard sauce over the top of each steak.
  8. 8
    Let the filet mignon cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
  9. 9
    Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  10. 10
    Serve the sliced filet mignon with the rich mustard sauce spooned over the top.
