To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 baguette, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 filet mignon steaks
- 1/2 cup grated Gruyere cheese
To start, preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly toasted.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized, about 20-25 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, salt, and pepper and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the mixture is thick and syrupy.
Next, season the filet mignon steaks with salt and pepper. Cut a slit in the side of each steak and stuff with grated Gruyere cheese. Heat a large skillet over high heat and sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned.
To assemble the crostini, top each slice of toasted baguette with a spoonful of caramelized onions and a slice of stuffed filet mignon. Serve immediately and enjoy!
