Mushroom Crusted Beef Tenderloin

Mushroom Crusted Beef Tenderloin
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons dried chives
  • 1 tablespoon dried tarragon
  • 1/2 teaspoon pureed garlic
  • 4 (6 ounce) 1 1/2 inch thick filet mignon steaks
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 (.5 ounce) package dried mushrooms, or more if needed


  1. Mix the butter, chives, tarragon, and garlic together in a bowl until well-blended. Place the butter mixture on a large piece of plastic wrap. Wrap the butter with the plastic and shape it into a log about 1-inch thick. Place the log in the refrigerator to chill.
  2. Season the beef tenderloin steaks with salt and black pepper. Place the dried mushrooms in a spice grinder or food processor. Process until the mushrooms are finely ground. Spread some of the ground mushroom on a plate. Press each steak into the mushroom powder until well coated, adding more mushroom to the plate as necessary.
  3. Melt about 2 tablespoons herb butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Arrange the steaks in the skillet and cook until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare, 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium. Top each steak with 1 teaspoon herb butter before serving.
