Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by drying the filet mignon with paper towels to ensure a good sear. Generously season both sides with kosher salt and black pepper, then let the steaks rest at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes.
- While the steaks rest, slice the baby bella mushrooms and mince the garlic cloves. Combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, and onion powder in a bowl.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the unsalted butter and olive oil. Once melted, coat each steak with the flour mixture and place them in the skillet. Sear for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
- Remove the steaks from the skillet and cover with aluminum foil to keep warm. Let rest for at least 5 minutes.
- In the same skillet, add the sliced mushrooms over medium heat and cook for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and fresh thyme, cooking for an additional minute.
- Pour the marsala wine into the skillet and scrape any brown bits from the bottom. Bring to a simmer and reduce for about 3 to 4 minutes.
- Stir in the beef stock and let simmer for another 2 to 3 minutes. Lower the heat and gently mix in the heavy cream, warming through and becoming luxurious.
- Return the seared steaks to the skillet, spooning the creamy sauce over them for an additional 3 to 5 minutes.
- To serve, place each steak on a serving dish and generously spoon the creamy marsala sauce with mushrooms over the steak.

Notes
Allow steak to rest before serving for the best flavor. Monitor doneness with a meat thermometer.
