Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Season the filet mignon generously with kosher salt and black pepper. Place on a wire rack and let rest for 30-60 minutes.
  2. Slice the baby bella mushrooms and mince 4-6 cloves of garlic.
  3. In a shallow dish, mix all-purpose flour, garlic powder, and onion powder. Dredge each filet mignon in the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
  4. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil and 2 tbsp butter in a skillet. Sear steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Add sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and thyme for 1 minute until fragrant. Deglaze with marsala wine.
  6. Pour in beef stock and let simmer for 3-4 minutes. Stir in heavy cream to achieve a creamy texture.
  7. Return the seared filet mignon to the skillet and simmer in the sauce for 3-5 minutes to absorb flavors.
  8. Plate the filet mignon and spoon mushroom marsala sauce over the top. Serve immediately.

Notes

Allowing steak to sit at room temperature assists in even cooking. Use a meat thermometer for desired doneness. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3-5 days.
