To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

For the beef tenderloin:

- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 onion, chopped

To start, season the beef tenderloin steaks with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside.

Add the beef broth to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the broth has reduced by half. Add the heavy cream and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
To serve, place a beef tenderloin steak on each plate and spoon the mushroom ragout over the top. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired.
