2 Servings
Ingredients:
1 (7-oz.) filet mignon (2 inches thick)
1/2 tsp. olive oil
1 1/2 tbsp. Cognac
1/4 cup beef broth
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp. coarse-grained mustard
1 tsp. unsalted butter
Directions:
Halve filet crosswise and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil over moderate heat in a small heavy skillet until hot but not smoking, then cook filets 2 to 3 minutes on each side for rare.
Let stand on a cutting board, tented loosely with foil, 5 minutes. While filets are standing, deglaze skillet with Cognac over moderate heat, scraping up brown bits.
Add broth and water and boil until reduced to about 1/4 cup. Remove from heat and whisk in mustard, butter, any meat juices from cutting board, and salt and pepper to taste. Thinly slice filets and serve with sauce.
