Ingredients

Directions

  1. Season the tournedos generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, crushed garlic, and thinly sliced onion.
  3. Rub the marinade mixture thoroughly over the beef tournedos.
  4. Let the beef marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  5. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over high heat until shimmering.
  6. Remove beef from marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and reserve the marinade for the sauce.
  7. Sear the tournedos in the hot pan for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
  8. Transfer the cooked beef to a warm plate and tent loosely with foil.
  9. In the same pan, add the reserved marinade, sliced mushrooms, and any remaining onions.
  10. Sauté over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are browned and tender.
  11. Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  12. Simmer the sauce over high heat for 2-3 minutes until it reduces slightly and becomes glossy.
  13. Spoon the mushroom and wine sauce over the beef before serving.
