Burgundy Filet Mignon
This incredibly flavorful and tender steak is a wonderful choice for a special romantic dinner. My husband and I are big beefeaters, and this is one of the best steak recipes we've ever had. The wine and oyster sauce may sound a bit unusual, but the tastes combine to make for one delicious marinade.
