Ingredients:

2 – filet mignons, 10-12oz each
1 tablespoon of Melgarejo Hojiblanca EVOO
1 ½ teaspoons of Seasonello Herbal Salt
1 teaspoon of coarsely cracked black peppercorn.
1 tablespoon of Butter Infused Olive Oil
6 ounces of mushroom (Shiitake or Cremini or Oyster)
1 tablespoon dry sherry
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 teaspoons of Tuscan Herb Infused Olive Oil
¼ cup of minced shallots
1 ½ tablespoons of brandy
¾ cup of heavy cream
2 tablespoons of mustard
Parsley for garnish

Method:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Pat filets dry with a paper towel, with a string tie your filet so around the middle so that it will hold its shape when cooking then brush the filet with the Melgarejo EVOO add Seasonello Herbal salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over high heat for 5 – 7 minutes. Once the skillet is hot, add the filets and sear evenly all sides (about 2 minutes top, bottom, sides). Transfer the filets from the skillet to a sheet pan, place them in the oven for 8-10 minutes (Medium Rare). Remove from oven and cover your sheet pan with the filets tightly with aluminum foil and allow them to rest for 10 minutes. Set skillet aside do not wash it yet.
In medium to low heat, heat Butter Infused Olive Oil in a sauté pan, add mushrooms and sauté for 4-5 minutes, stir in the sherry and cook for 8-10 minutes until mushrooms are cooked through. Sprinkle about a ¼ teaspoon of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Using the skillet that you seared your filets, add the Tuscan Herb Olive Oil, add shallots and cook over medium to low heat for about 2 minutes, add brandy, stir to deglaze the skillet, cook until brandy evaporates, and the shallots are tender, then stir in the heavy cream and simmer until thickened. Stir in mustard and season to taste.
Remove string from filets and plate. Spoon the cream mustard sauce around the filet. Top meat with a spoon full of mushrooms, garnish with parsley and serve hot.

Ingredients:

16oz of penne pasta or pasta of your choice
1 cup dried mushrooms such as shitake, porcini, and morel
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons Chiquitita Olive Oil
1/3 cup dry Marsala wine
1/2 cup reserved mushroom stock (soaking liquid)
2 tablespoons Traditional Style Balsamic Condimento
1 large shallot, sliced thin
1 medium red onion, sliced thin
1 – 2″ sprig of fresh thyme, leaves only
kosher salt and fresh ground pepper to taste
Grated Pecorino Romano cheese

Method:

Place mushrooms in a small bowl and pour one cup of boiling water over the mushrooms and set aside. Place a large sauté pan, over medium heat. Add the EVOO, onion and shallot and a small sprinkle of kosher salt. Sauté slowly until the onions are caramelized, being careful not to burn them. This should take approximately 5 minutes until they are golden brown.

Drain the mushrooms well reserving the soaking liquid. Chop lightly if the pieces are large. Add the mushrooms and thyme leaves to the sauté pan. Sauté for another minute and then add the Marsala wine, scraping up any browned bits.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Reduce the wine by half and add the mushroom stock. Continue cooking over medium heat until liquid is again reduced by half. Add in the balsamic, and then the heavy cream stirring well to combine. Allow to simmer for an additional minute or two, to allow the sauce to thicken. Season well with kosher salt and a generous amount of fresh ground pepper.

Boil your pasta in the salted water, cook until al dente.

Add the cooked, drained pasta to the sauté pan. Toss it with the sauce and allow it to simmer in the sauce for an additional minute.

Serve with grated fresh Pecorino Romano cheese.
