Ingredients
- 8 beef fillet medallions
- ¼ cup hazelnuts (coarsely chopped)
- Butter, as needed
- 1 glass red wine
- Flour, as needed
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
Prepare the Meat
Take the beef fillet medallions and tie them with kitchen string to maintain their shape during cooking.
Lightly coat each medallion in flour, making sure to cover the edges as well.
Sear the Fillets
Heat a generous knob of butter in a pan over high heat.
Sear the medallions on all sides until a golden crust forms.
Season with salt, then wrap each piece in aluminum foil and let them rest for a few minutes.
Prepare the Sauce
Deglaze the pan with red wine, scraping up the cooking juices.
Let the wine reduce until the sauce thickens slightly.
Finish and Serve
Remove the fillets from the foil and place them on serving plates.
Spoon the red wine reduction over the meat.
Top with coarsely chopped hazelnuts and a sprinkle of pepper.
Serve immediately.
