4 (6-ounce) beef fillets
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 T. grainy mustard
1 cup herbs (such as sage, thyme, rosemary, basil and parsley), finely chopped
1/2 shallot, finely chopped
1/4 cup white wine
1 T. butter

Season fillets with salt and pepper. Heat a heavy sauté pan over medium high heat. Coat edges of fillet with a thin layer of mustard, approximately 2 T.. Dredge edges of filet in herbs to coat evenly. Sear fillet, 4 to 6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the meat. Remove cooked fillet. Lower heat to medium. Add shallots and sauté until translucent. Deglaze pan with white wine. Add 2 T. mustard. Reduce wine to consistency of a rich sauce. If desired, remove the pan from the heat and whisk butter into the sauce. Serve immediately.
