Pan Grilled Tenderloin with Beurre Bercy recipe from Dr. Gourmet

Ingredients

  • 1 small shallot (minced)
  • 2 cups no salt added beef or vegetable stock
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1 tap fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 4-ounce beef tenderloin filets
  • spray olive oil

Place the minced shallot, stock, salt, white wine and fresh ground black pepper in a small sauce pan. 

Cook for about 30 minutes over medium-high heat until the liquid is completely reduced. 

Swirl occasionally. 

The finished reduction should be a thick sauce with barely any liquid left. 

Remove from the heat and allow to cool for about ten minutes. 

Add the butter whisking as it melts to incorporate this into the shallot/pepper reduction.  Set aside. 

Preheat the oven to 450°F.  Place a non-stick grill pan in the oven and allow it to heat for about ten minutes. 

Lightly spritz the pan with olive oil and add the filet.  Cook on the first side for 5 – 7 minutes. 

Turn and cook for about another 4 – 5 minutes for rare and 6 – 7 minutes for medium rare.

Remove and place on plate. 

Top with one tablespoon sauce and serve.
