Didn't knock my socks off. The gravy was really good but I guess that was the whole recipe since anyone can salt and pepper a piece of beef and cook it. I think there was way too much gravy for 4-1/4cup servings. I'll probably make again cause it was so easy.

- 4 (4-ounce) beef tenderloin steaks, trimmed (1/2 inch thick)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup presliced mushrooms
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 teaspoon bottled minced garlic
- 1/2 cup low-salt beef broth
- 1/3 cup fat-free sour cream
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Preparation
- Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Sprinkle steaks with pepper and salt. Add steaks to pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until desired degree of doneness. Remove from pan.
- Add mushrooms, onion, and garlic to pan; sauté 5 minutes. Stir in broth; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 3 minutes.
- Place sour cream in a medium bowl. Gradually add mushroom mixture to sour cream, stirring constantly with a whisk. Stir in minced parsley. Serve gravy with steak.
Note:
Gradually add the hot mushroom mixture to the cold sour cream to keep the two from separating.
