Blackberry and Herb Filet Mignon
Recipe courtesy Sandra Lee, 2007

Ingredients
4 (8-ounce) filet mignon medallions
1 (1.06-ounce) packet herb marinade mix (recommended: McCormick Grill Mates)
1 tablespoon herbs de Provence
1/3 cup cognac
3 tablespoons black and raspberry vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup frozen blackberries, thawed
2 tablespoons butter
Fresh blackberries, for garnish

Instructions
In large zip-top bag, combine all ingredients, except butter and fresh
blackberries. Squeeze out air and seal bag. Massage bag until well combined and marinade mix is
dissolved. Marinate in refrigerator 6 to 8 hours. Remove filets from refrigerator 30 minutes before
cooking.

Melt butter in heavy-bottomed, or cast iron, skillet over medium-high heat.

Remove steaks from marinade and sear for 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Serve hot, topped with pan juices and fresh blackberry garnish.
