Description

Filet mignon is served over mushrooms and tortellini coated with Alfredo sauce in this delicious dish that's worth the effort!

Ingredients

3/4 pound filet mignon
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon granulated onion
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (9 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
1 tablespoon salted butter
3 portobello mushrooms, quartered
1 tablespoon salted butter
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 cup fat-free half-and-half
1 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
1 pinch grated nutmeg

Directions

1 Season filet mignon on both sides with garlic salt, granulated onion, and pepper. Set aside.
2 Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 3 minutes.
3 Meanwhile, set a grill pan over medium high-heat. Melt butter in the hot pan. Add filet and quartered mushrooms. Cook the filet for 3 minutes per side. Cook mushrooms for 1 to 2 minutes. Remove filet, cover, and allow to rest.
4 Meanwhile, for the sauce, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Push garlic to the side of the pan and stir in flour until smooth. Slowly add half-and-half, stirring until sauce thickens. Stir in Parmesan cheese and nutmeg.
5 Cut filet into strips. Distribute tortellini among the plates, drizzle with sauce, and top with steak strips and mushrooms.
