How to Make Beef Fillet Steaks With Pepper Thyme Sauce

  1. Pat the beef fillet steaks dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the steaks to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until a nice crust forms.
  4. Reduce the heat to medium, add the remaining olive oil, and add the minced shallot. Cook for 1 minute until softened.
  5. Add the thyme leaves to the skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  6. Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt. Tilt the pan and spoon the melted butter over the steaks for 1-2 minutes.
  7. Pour in the red wine (if using) and beef broth. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  8. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly reduced and thickened.
  9. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  10. Slice the steaks against the grain and serve them over your favorite sides, spooning the pepper thyme sauce generously over the top.
