"This is an elegant and quick romantic dinner for two. Wonderful served with steamed asparagus and baby red potatoes."

Ingredients

·      2 (4 ounce) filet mignon steaks

·      ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper to taste

·      Salt to taste

·      ¼ cup balsamic vinegar

·      ¼ cup dry red wine

Directions

Prep: 5 min. | Cook: 15 min. | Ready in 20 min.

1.      Sprinkle freshly ground pepper over both sides of each steak, and sprinkle with salt to taste.

2.      Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place steaks in hot pan, and cook for 1 minute on each side, or until browned. Reduce heat to medium-low, and add balsamic vinegar and red wine. Cook, and cover for 4 minutes on each side, basting with sauce when you turn the meat over.
