Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Roasting Peppers

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the red bell peppers in half, remove the seeds, and place them cut side down on a baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes until the skin is blistered. Remove from the oven and let cool. Once cooled, peel off the skin and chop the peppers.

  2. 2

    Sautéing Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced yellow onion and button mushrooms. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Preparing the Sauce

    In a blender, combine the roasted red peppers, garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a little water to reach the desired consistency.

Cooking the Beef

  1. 4

    Grilling the Steak

    Season the contre filet de boeuf with salt and black pepper on both sides. In the same skillet used for the vegetables, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over high heat. Sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing.

Serving

  1. 5

    Plating the Dish

    Slice the contre filet de boeuf and arrange it on a plate. Top with the sautéed onions and mushrooms, and drizzle the roasted red pepper sauce over the steak. Serve immediately.
