Follow The Directions

01

Step

Finely mince the drained mushrooms. In a small bowl, combine the minced mushrooms with softened butter, minced onion, salt, and pepper. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Reserve half of the butter mixture. Spread the remaining half evenly over the 4 beef tenderloin filets. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

03

Step

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat until it's nicely hot. Place the filets in the skillet, butter-side down. Spread the reserved butter mixture over the exposed side of the filets. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step

Cook the filets to your desired level of doneness, turning once during the cooking process. (Cook time: 6-10 minutes, depending on desired doneness)

05

Step

Transfer the cooked filets to a plate, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and set aside to keep warm. (Prep time: 1 minute)

06

Step

Return the skillet to medium-high heat. Pour in the reserved mushroom liquid and scrape up any flavorful browned bits from the bottom of the pan. (Prep time: 1 minute)

07

Step

Add the strawberry jelly and fresh lemon juice to the skillet. Simmer until the liquid is reduced by half, concentrating the flavors. (Cook time: 3-5 minutes)

08

Step

Stir in the vanilla ice cream and cook until the sauce is thickened to your liking, about 2 minutes. (Cook time: 2 minutes)

09

Step

Pour the delightful mushroom sauce over the pan-fried filets and serve immediately. Enjoy!

For an enhanced flavor profile, consider using freshly foraged mushrooms instead of canned. If using fresh mushrooms, sauté them lightly before adding them to the butter mixture.
Top sirloin can be substituted for beef tenderloin filets, adjust cooking time accordingly.
For a richer sauce, use high-quality vanilla bean ice cream.
Adjust the amount of strawberry jelly to your personal preference for sweetness.

    The mushroom butter was amazing on its own. I will use it on other things too.

  • Verna Hessel

    Next time I'll try using different types of mushrooms for a more complex flavor.

  • Cathryn Bechtelar

    I substituted the ice cream with a tablespoon of heavy cream and it turned out great!

  • Marilyne Grady

    I found that searing the filets a little longer on each side helped to develop a nice crust.

  • Augustine Ebert

    This recipe was surprisingly delicious! The strawberry jelly adds a unique sweetness that complements the beef perfectly.
