Ingredients
Cooking spray
1 spray(s)
Table salt
0.5 tsp
Black pepper
0.5 tsp
Uncooked lean and trimmed beef filet mignon
8 oz
Table wine
6 Tbsp
Unsalted butter
1 tsp
Chives
0.5 Tbsp

Instructions
1
Coat a grill pan (with sides) with cooking spray; set pan over medium-high heat.
2
Rub salt and pepper all over steak. When pan is hot, cook steak for about 4 minutes without flipping. Flip steak and cook for about 4 to 6 minutes more for medium doneness.
3
Remove steak to a cutting board and loosely cover with aluminum foil; let rest for at least 10 minutes (steak will continue to cook under foil).
4
While steak is resting, pour wine onto grill pan; increase heat to high. Reduce liquid by about 75%, scraping bottom and sides of pan while sauce is boiling (the thicker the sauce, the more flavor it will have), about 2 to 4 minutes. If any juice has seeped out of steak while it’s resting, add it to grill pan. Once sauce is reduced, add butter to pan; cook until just melted.
5
Very thinly slice steak against grain and place on plates; drizzle with sauce. Garnish with chives or parsley and serve with asparagus. Yields about 3 1/2 ounces steak, 1 tablespoon sauce and 1/2 of asparagus per serving.
