    List of Ingredients




    1 1/4 lb Filet mignon,cut 1-in thick
    Salt and pepper
    1 tbsp Vegetable oil
    2 tbsp Butter
    1 tbsp Shallots chopped fine
    1/2 cup Dry red wine
    1/2 cup Brown sauce,or canned gravy

    Recipe



    Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper to taste. Heat the oil in a large skillet, large enough to hold the slices in one layer. Brown the meat on both sides, about 1-2 min. to a side. Or cook longer if
    you prefer meat well done. Transfer the meat to a heated serving platter and keep warm. Pour off the fat from the skillet. Add 1 tbsp of the butter and when it is hot, add the shallots. Cook briefly, stirring, then add the wine. Cook until almost reduced by half. Stir in the brown sauce and cook about 2 min. Put the sauce through a fine strainer into a small saucepan. Add salt and pepper to
    taste. Swril in the remaining butter. Spoon the sauce over the meat.
