Beef Neil Diamond


What does one do with leftover red wine? Create a recipe named after one of their favorite performers, of course.

In a small saucepan:
1 Medium Carrot, diced
1 Small Parsnip, diced

1 Large Shallot, diced

2 Cloves Garlic, smashed

3/4 Cup Beef or Chicken Broth
3/4 Cup Red Red Wine

Simmer everything for 30 minutes.

Then, in a very hot pan:
Two 1/2 lb. Filet Mignon steaks, seasoned with salt & pepper
Cook to desired doneness- about 4 minutes for medium-rare.

Remove steak from plan, and allow steak to rest 5 minutes.

While it does, add to sauce:
1 Tablespoon Butter

Pour sauce over steak, and serve.
