per person:
1 filet mignon,
1 inch thick
5 crimi mushrooms, chopped finely
1 small shallot, diced
butter
olive oil
salt & freshly ground pepper
10 sheets
of phyllo dough
Preheat oven to 450F and make sure phyllo
dough
is defrosted if you are buying it. see
below.
Make a duxelle: fry shallot until golden in
some butter and olive oil. Then
add
mushrooms and cook for a few minutes until
they are sufficiently shriveled.
Chill.
Cook steaks for 3 minutes over medium high
heat, turning
once. Set aside and cool for a
few minutes.
Remove phyllo dough
(if you buy frozen,
remember it takes a few hours to defrost it.
the
defrost time can be shortened
considerably if it is wrapped tightly in air
tight plastic (aka ziplock) and submerged in
room temperature water for 1
hour). Coat
each layer with melted butter or olive oil (or
pam if you
are really lazy).
Put steak on phyllo dough. Put duxelle on
steak.
Wrap dough, coat outside in oil, or
egg wash. Then bake at 450 for 9-10
minutes. Serves
