Add Brussels sprouts and wild rice to this entertaining-worthy dish.
Use a large skillet to accommodate cooking the four steaks at once. If
they're crowded in a small pan, the steaks will "steam," affecting the
meat's texture.

4 (4-ounce) filet mignon steaks, trimmed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Cooking spray
3/4 cup port or other sweet red wine
2 tablespoons jellied cranberry sauce
2 tablespoons fat-free, less-sodium beef broth
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese

1. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle
steaks with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; coat steaks
with cooking spray. Add steaks to pan; cook 4 minutes on each side or
until desired degree of doneness. Remove steaks from pan; keep warm.

2. Add port, cranberry sauce, broth, 1/8 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon
pepper, and garlic to pan, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Reduce
heat, and cook until liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup (about 4 minutes).
Serve steaks with sauce; top with cheese.


Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 steak, 1 tablespoon sauce, and 1
