Ingredients

18 ounces filet mignon, cut into thin steaks
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
½ cup shredded onion
1 cup heavy cream
5 ¼ ounces blue cheese, cubed
1 clove garlic
1 pinch ground nutmeg, or to taste

Steps:

Heat a grill pan over high heat. Season filet mignon steaks with salt and pepper. Cook steaks in the hot pan until beginning to firm and hot and slightly pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side for medium. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C). Set aside.
Mix olive oil and butter in a pan over medium heat and allow butter to melt; add onion. Cook and stir until softened and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add heavy cream, blue cheese, onion, garlic, nutmeg, and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low; stir until cheese melts completely, 3 to 5 minutes more. Add a little water to thin if necessary. Pour sauce over the steaks.
