Steak with Chipotle Peppers Paleo Recipe  

Servings: 2

Ingredients

• 2 (10-ounce) filet mignon, 2-inches thick
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 3 tablespoons butter, room temperature and divided
• ¾ cup red wine
• 1 chipotle pepper (canned, in adobo sauce), finely diced
• 1 tablespoon salt
• 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400° F.
2. Heat a cast-iron skillet on the stovetop on high heat for about 5 minutes.
3. Brush all sides of the filets with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper overall (this may seem like a generous amount of salt and pepper, but it's perfect for this thick cut of meat).
4. Place the filets in the dry, hot skillet and reduce the heat to medium-high. Sear for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, making sure to sear the outer edge of the filets as well. The seasoning will help form a crust on the meat.
5. Put 1 tablespoon butter atop each filet and place the skillet into the pre-heated oven to cook for 10 to 15 minutes. This will produce a medium-rare steak with an internal temperature of 120°F to 125°F.
6. Transfer the filets to a serving plate and tent with foil. Allow the meat to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
7. While the meat rests, return the skillet to the stovetop. Deglaze the pan over medium heat, whisking in the wine and scraping up all the browned bits left in the skillets. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and the chipotle pepper. Reduce the heat to medium-low, and cok for 5 to 8 minutes to allow the wine to reduce by half.
8. Taste the sauce and add salt and pepper if desired. Plate the filets, spoon the pan sauce over each, and serve immediately.
9. Leftover filet can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 week. Slice the cold meat and toss in a salad for a delicious lunch.
