Equipment

  • 12-14" Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz filet mignon trim meat
  • 1 tbsp cooking oil
  • cup heavy whipping cream
  • 8 oz mushrooms, quartered I use cremini
  • 10-15 cloves roasted or confit garlic
  • cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp brandy
  • 2 green onions
  • pinch red pepper flake
  • 8-10 oz fresh pasta or 6 oz dried. I prefer wide noodles.

Instructions
 

  • Prep all of your vegetables. Wash and cut the mushrooms into quarters and cut green onions into 1" pieces.
  • Cut your meat into thin, bite size strips.
  • Heat your skillet on high heat, put the oil in your pan and heat until barely smoking.
  • Boil salted water for your pasta. Cook according to package directions.
  • Put in your meat and mushrooms together and sauté on high until caramelized on at least one side. Season with salt.
  • Next, add in the garlic, green onion, and red pepper flake. Stir around to heat, just a few seconds.
  • Deglaze the pan with the brandy- this step is super quick. Be sure to scrape all of the stuck bits off the bottom of the pan.
  • Next, add in the heavy cream and sour cream, stir to combine and reduce the sauce on high heat until thickened. This should take just a couple minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Toss with cooked pasta and serve!
