Ingredients
- 2 pieces (6-8 oz each) beef fillets
- 1 teaspoon (or to taste) salt
- 1 teaspoon (freshly cracked, or to taste) black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons (divided) butter
- 2 ounces (crumbled) Stilton cheese
- 8 ounces (sliced) white mushrooms
- 2 cloves (minced) garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon (chopped) fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
Directions
Step 1
Take the beef fillets out of the fridge 30 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
Step 2
Season the fillets generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Step 3
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully sear the fillets for 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare (or adjust according to your desired doneness). Remove the fillets from the pan and set aside, loosely covering them with foil to rest.
Step 4
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. Heat over medium heat and add the sliced mushrooms, stirring occasionally for 5-6 minutes until softened and golden.
Step 5
Add the minced garlic to the mushrooms and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in the heavy cream, cooking for 2 more minutes to coat the mushrooms. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.
Step 6
Preheat the oven broiler to high. Place the fillets on a baking sheet, top each fillet with 1 ounce of crumbled Stilton cheese, and place the sheet under the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese melts and becomes slightly bubbly.
Step 7
Serve the Stilton-topped beef fillets immediately, accompanied by the garlicky mushrooms. Garnish with extra parsley if desired for a touch of freshness.
