Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-ounce each) Beef filet mignons
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 8 ounces Cremini or button mushrooms (finely chopped)
• 1 medium Shallot (finely minced)
• 1 clove Garlic clove (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Dry white wine
• 2 sheets Puff pastry sheets (thawed if frozen)
• 1 large Egg (beaten for egg wash)
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 8 slices Prosciutto slices
• 1 tablespoon All-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

Season the beef filets generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the beef filets for 1 minute on each side, including the edges. Transfer to a plate and let cool.

Step 3

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped mushrooms, shallot, garlic, and thyme. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring frequently, until the moisture has evaporated, and the mixture is dry.

Step 4

Deglaze the skillet by adding dry white wine. Cook for another 2 minutes or until the liquid is fully absorbed. Remove from heat and let the mushroom mixture cool completely.

Step 5

Lightly flour your work surface and roll out one sheet of puff pastry. Cut it into 2 squares large enough to wrap around each filet. Repeat with the second sheet for the remaining filets.

Step 6

Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on each cooled filet. Place 2 slices of prosciutto on the work surface, overlapping slightly, and spoon a portion of the mushroom pâté onto the prosciutto. Spread evenly.

Step 7

Place each filet on top of the prosciutto and mushroom mix. Wrap the prosciutto tightly around the filet to enclose the mushroom pâté.

Step 8

Position the wrapped filet in the center of a pastry square. Fold the pastry edges over the top, tucking and sealing well to create a neat package. Trim any excess pastry as needed.

Step 9

Brush the edges of the pastry with beaten egg to seal and place the seam side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 10

Repeat the process for the remaining filets. Brush the tops of the wrapped Wellingtons with beaten egg for a golden finish.

Step 11

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Chill the wrapped filets in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to firm up the pastry.

Step 12

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and the beef reaches your preferred doneness (125°F for medium-rare). Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 13

Serve with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or creamy mashed potatoes, and enjoy your elegant meal.
