How to Make Balsamic And Goat Cheese Filet Mignon
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is reduced to 1/3 cup (approximately 15 minutes). Set aside.
- Preheat your broiler.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the filet mignon steaks generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Sear the steaks in the hot skillet for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.
- Transfer the seared steaks to a baking sheet.
- Crumble 4 ounces of peppered goat cheese evenly over the steaks.
- Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden brown. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Drizzle the balsamic reduction around the steaks.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
