Ingredients
  

  • 4 beef fillet steaks 200 g each
  • 3 tbsp cooked chestnuts
  • 1 tbsp softened butter
  • 10 g parsley
  • 2 tbsp ricotta cheese
  • 1 tbsp shallot
  • 2 tbsp grated Grana Padano cheese
  • 1 drizzle extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp flour
  • Salt freshly ground pepper

Method
 

  1. Sear the beef: Heat a little olive oil in a hot pan. Sear the fillet steaks briefly on all sides until browned. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Place on a rack to cool.
  2. Prepare the crust: Peel and finely chop the shallot. Sweat it in butter until translucent. Add the chopped chestnuts and cook for a few minutes.
  3. Combine ingredients: Stir in the chopped parsley, Grana Padano, and flour to form a crumbly paste.
  4. Crust and bake: Spread the mixture evenly over one side of each fillet. Place the steaks in a preheated oven at 200°C for 5–10 minutes, depending on desired doneness.
  5. Rest and serve: Let the fillets rest for a few minutes. Serve with a seasonal garnish and Porto sauce.
