Ingredients for Filet Bruschetta

Method

Directions for Filet Bruschetta

  1. 1

    Prepare the Balsamic Reduction

    In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes until it thickens. Set aside to cool.

  2. 2

    Cook the Filet Medallions

    Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the filet medallions for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and let rest before slicing.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Onions and Peppers

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Sauté the chopped onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the roasted red bell peppers and cook for another 2 minutes. Season with salt to taste.

  4. 4

    Make the Black Pepper Aioli

    In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, and black pepper. Mix well and adjust seasoning if necessary.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Bruschetta

    Slice the crusty bread or baguette into 1-inch pieces and toast them lightly. Spread a layer of black pepper aioli on each slice, top with sliced filet medallions, sautéed peppers and onions, and a drizzle of balsamic reduction. Garnish with fresh basil leaves.
