Really easy to prepare and one of my (picky) husbands favorite meals. I have also made it with sirloin, just as good and a little cheaper :) I buy the peppered goat cheese from the deli and it adds a little spice.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons butter
30 ounces filet mignon steaks (each about 1-inch thick, six 5 ounce steaks)
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper
2 ounces fresh goat cheese
Directions:
1. Boil balsamic vinegar and sugar in a heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to 1/3 cup, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes.
2. Preheat the broiler.
3. Melt the butter in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat.
4. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper.
5. Cook the steaks to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare.
6. Transfer the steaks to a baking sheet.
7. Crumble the cheese over the steaks and broil just until the cheese melts, about 1 minute.
8. Sprinkle with pepper.
9. Drizzle the balsamic sauce around the steaks and serve.
