When I saw this #SundaySupper I had no idea what to make. I knew it wasn’t going to be Tuna Noodle Casserole, not that there is anything wrong with that, it just wasn’t where I wanted to go with this. Instead of decreasing ingredients to make it work for this #SundaySupper I wanted to up the game!! Flipping through Fine Cooking magazine gave me exactly what I wanted to do. Taking a simple steak and making it out of this world!! I tweaked it slightly and I give you this divine steak that will make it seem like you fussed all day but actually you can pull this together in no time!! And you don’t have to stand outside and freeze you tuckus off in those winter months barbecuing. Salt and pepper are free and the parsley is an optional ingredient. Accompany with simple boiled potatoes and asparagus if you like. Enjoy!!!
- 4 1½-2" thick beef tenderloins, 6-7 oz. each
- ½ cup pecans toasted and chopped
- 1 Tbsp. canola oil
- 3 oz. Stilton cheese
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 2 Tbsp. parsley, optional
- Salt and Pepper
- Preheat oven to 400F. Let the steaks come to room temperature and pat dry, salt and pepper to taste. Heat a cast iron pan over medium high heat for 2 min. then add the oil and cook the steaks for 3 min. per side.
- Meanwhile mix cheese, butter and pecans together. Chop parsley if using.
- Once steaks are done transfer the pan to the oven for 5-6 min. using a meat thermometer to make sure it has reached 125F for medium rare. Remove the steaks from the skillet and top with the cheese topping, cover with tin foil and let rest for 5 min. Sprinkle with the optional parsley and serve.

Cheers!

September 30, 2012 at 2:01 pmMy husband LOVES stilton and pecans. I have been trying really hard to develop a taste for stilton but haven’t succeeded yet. But I am always willing to try and making this would make my husband so happy so I might have to plan a special meal for him. 🙂
veronica gantley says
September 30, 2012 at 3:03 pmStilton and beef go well together. It is something that almost everyone has in the pantry. IT would make a quick week night meal.
