Pan-Seared Beef Steaks with Garlic Red Wine Gravy


Ingredients:
3 tsp. butter
8 (5 oz. each) beef filet mignons, 3/4 inch thick
1/2 c. chopped shallot or onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 can (10 1/4 oz.) beef gravy
1/2 c. Burgundy or other dry red wine


Directions:
Heat 1 tsp. butter in a 12 inch skillet over medium-high heat.  Add the beef in 2 batches and cook for 8 minutes for medium or to desired doneness, turning the beef over once and adding an additional 1 tsp. butter as needed during cooking.  Remove the beef from the skillet and keep warm.


Reduce the heat to medium.  Add the remaining butter to the skillet.  Add the shallots and cook for 1 minute.  Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.  


Stir in the gravy and wine and heat to a boil.  Return the steaks to the skillet and cook until they are heated through.
