Filet Mignon With Gorgonzola Recipes

BEEF TENDERLOIN STEAKS WITH GORGONZOLA

Steps:

• Let meat rest 10 minutes before beginning dinner preparation.
• Place a large, flat griddle or skillet over high heat. When hot, using a pair of tongs and a folded paper towel, wipe cooking surface with oil and place steaks on hot pan. Caramelize the steaks, 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to moderate. Season meat with salt and pepper and cook 4 to 5 minutes longer on each side.
• Preheat broiler to high.
• Arrange steaks on baking sheet. Top each steak with 3 ounces Gorgonzola. Place baking sheet 6 inches from broiler heat just long enough to melt the cheese. Remove meat from the oven and top with slivers of fresh sage. Let meat rest 2 or 3 minutes, then serve immediately.

PETITE FILET WITH GORGONZOLA AND PORCINI MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Sprinkle both sides of the beef with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe medium skillet over high heat. When the oil is hot, carefully place the filet in the pan. Cook until browned on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes a side. Transfer the steak to the oven and bake until a meat thermometer reads 130 degrees F. for medium-rare, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove the beef from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and the shallots and cook until golden brown and tender, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme, white wine, salt, and pepper and continue to cook until all of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the Gorgonzola, mayonnaise, and mustard in a food processor and combine until smooth. Transfer the Gorgonzola mixture to the skillet with mushrooms and shallots. Gently stir the cheese mixture into the mushroom mixture.
• Slice the beef and serve topped with a dollop of the cheese sauce. Reserve leftover sauce for another use.

FILET MIGNON FOR TWO

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Place a large, oven-proof skillet in the oven as it preheats.
• Bring steaks to room temperature. Rub with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Remove the hot skillet from the oven carefully and place it on a burner set to high heat. Leave the oven on.
• Place steaks into the dry pan immediately and sear, turning with tongs, 1 to 2 minutes on both sides.
• Transfer the pan back into the preheated oven and cook until desired doneness is reached, 3 to 5 minutes. For medium doneness, an instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Transfer steaks to a warm platter and tent loosely with foil. Let rest for 5 to 10 minutes; the steaks will continue to cook during this process and the internal temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees.
• Meanwhile, heat butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add shallot and garlic and saute until shallot is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour in cream; let cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Turn heat to low and add Gorgonzola cheese. Let cheese melt; season with salt and pepper. Serve sauce with steaks.

GRILLED FILET MIGNON WITH GORGONZOLA CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Pour heavy cream into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until the cream has reduced by half, stirring occasionally, about an hour. Remove from heat and whisk in the Gorgonzola cheese and Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and nutmeg, until the cheese has melted.
• Season the beef tenderloin with lemon pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 3 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove the steaks from the grill and tent with foil to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve each steak with the Gorgonzola sauce and top with crumbled bacon and chopped green onion.

FILET MIGNON WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE FAST2EAT

Steps:

• Bring the steaks to room temperature. (*)

PAN SEARED FILET MIGNON WITH PEAR GORGONZOLA CONCHIGLIONI GRATIN

Steps:

• Pre heat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta, diced pear and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper. Reserve.
• In a large pot with boiling salted water, cook the conchiglioni shells until they are not yet al dente, about 2 - 3 minutes less than what the package suggests. When done, drain and run under cold water to stop cooking.
• Make the gorgonzola sauce. In a saucepan, heat the butter, over medium low heat, until melted. Whisk in the flour and cook for a minute or so, to get rid of that raw flour smell. Slowly add the milk, whisking constantly, and cook until the sauce begins to thicken. Add the crumble gorgonzola and stir until the cheese melts and the sauce reaches desired consistency. It should be creamy but not too thick and spoonable. Season with salt and pepper.
• Stuff shells with the ricotta pear mixture.
• Add a layer of gorgonzola sauce to a medium sized baking dish or cast iron. Arrange the stuffed conchiglioni on top and pour the remaining sauce on top, reserving some to spoon on the steaks. Sprinkle the parmesan cheese and bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes or until the pasta is al dente.
• Optional: pop it under the broiler for 2 - 3 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
• When the gratin is ready, remove from oven and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.
• While the gratin is baking, cook the steaks. Season the filet mignon steaks generously with salt and pepper. Heat the vegetable oil in a cast iron or skillet, over medium high heat, until smoking. Add the steaks and sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from pan to a cutting board when a thermometer reads 135 degrees F. Cover with foil and let the steaks rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
• Serve the steaks with the conchiglioni gratin, topped with the remaining gorgonzola sauce.
