What You'll Need

2 (6-ounce) beef tenderloin steaks (about 1-inch thick)
1/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
2 teaspoons butter
1/2 small onion, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/4 cup dry red wine

What to Do

Coat a large skillet with cooking spray. Season the steaks with 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper.
Heat the skillet over medium heat. Add the steaks and cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. Remove from the skillet; set aside and keep warm.
Melt the butter in the skillet over medium-high heat; add the onion, garlic, mushrooms, and the remaining 1/8 teaspoon each of salt and pepper; sauté the mushrooms and onion until tender.
Stir in the wine and cook over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the wine is reduced by half. Serve the steaks topped with the mushroom-wine sauce.
