1 tbsp (15 ml) vegetable oil
2 slices filet mignon (5 oz (140 grm). to 6 oz (168 grm). each)
salt
freshly ground pepper
1 tbsp (15 ml) unsalted butter
2 shallots, minced
3/4 cup (175 ml) full-bodied red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
3/4 cup (175 ml) homemade or low-salt canned chicken stock
1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh rosemary, chopped
2 tbsp (30 ml) crumbled blue cheese
2 tbsp (30 ml) pine nuts, toasted in a dry skillet and chopped

1
Lightly pound filets to about 3/4 inch thick.
2
Seasoned with salt and freshly ground pepper.
3
In a medium, nonreactive skillet, heat the oil over high heat.
4
When the oil is hot, sear the meat on both sides until well browned, about 3 minutes per side for medium rare.
5
Transfer the meat to a platter and tent it with foil to keep warm.
6
Pour the excess oil out of the pan, making sure to hold back the cooked-on juices and browned bits.
7
Reduce the heat to medium high and add the butter.
8
When the butter is melted, add the shallots, sauteing until softened, about 1 minute.
9
Add the wine and cook at a vigorous simmer, scraping up the browned bits with a wooden spoon and reducing until the liquid is very syrupy.
10
Add the stock and rosemary; continue boiling until the liquid is reduced by half.
11
Remove from the heat.
12
Stir in the blue cheese, along with any juices that have run off the meat; the cheese should melt just slightly.
13
Spoon the sauce over the meat, garnish with the chopped pine nuts and serve.
