Steak Diane Recipe - Authentic French Beef Delight

Ingredients

Servings:
4
  • 2 steaks beef tenderloin (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1 cup mushrooms (sliced)
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
  • to taste salt and pepper

Instructions

6 steps

  1. Prepare the Steaks

    Season the beef tenderloin steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.

    Let the steaks sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.
  2. Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

    Ensure the pan is hot before adding the steaks for a good sear.
  3. Cook the Steaks

    Add the steaks to the hot skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare.

    Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
  4. Sauté the Garlic and Mushrooms

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add butter, garlic, and mushrooms.

    Sauté until mushrooms are tender and fragrant, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Make the Sauce

    Add beef broth, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard to the skillet. Stir well and simmer for 5 minutes.

    Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve the Dish

    Return the steaks to the skillet to warm through and coat with sauce before serving.

    Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
