     Title: Blue Cheese Crusted Filet Mignon w/Port Wine Sauce
Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Cheese, Herbs, Wine
     Yield: 4 Servings

     1 tb Unsalted butter
   1/2 c  Minced white onion
     3 cl Garlic; minced
     1 tb Chopped fresh thyme
   3/4 c  Low-sodium beef broth
   1/2 c  Port wine
     1 tb Oil
     4    (1 1/2" thick) filet mignon
          - steaks
   3/4 c  Crumbled blue cheese
   1/4 c  Panko bread crumbs

 Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion,
 garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring constantly, until onion
 is tender. Stir in the beef broth, scraping any onion
 bits from the bottom of the pan, then stir in the port
 wine. Bring to a boil, and cook until the mixture has
 reduced to about 1/2 cup. Set aside. This may also be
 made ahead of time, and reheated.

 Set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

 Heat oil in a cast-iron or other oven-safe skillet over
 high heat. Sear steaks quickly on both sides until brown,
 then place the whole pan into the oven.

 Roast steaks in the oven for about 15 minutes for medium
 rare. You may adjust this time to allow the steaks to
 finish just below your desired degree of doneness if
 medium is not what you prefer. Remove from the oven, and
 place on a baking sheet. Stir together the panko crumbs
 and blue cheese. Top each steak with a layer of this
 mixture.

 Start the oven's broiler. Place steaks under the broiler
 until the cheese topping is browned and bubbly. 3 to 4
 minutes. Remove from the oven, and let stand for at least
 15 minutes before serving.

 Serve with warm port wine sauce.
