Ingredients

• 4 extra-lean beef filets (6 ounces each)
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 large red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons crumbled Gorgonzola or blue cheese

Method

1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Rub filets evenly with 1/2 teaspoon each of the salt
and pepper, set aside.
2. Coat a baking sheet in cooking spray. Place onions in a mixing bowl, add
the vinegar, remaining salt and pepper, toss to coat well. Transfer the onions
to the baking sheet and spray with a light coating of cooking spray.
3. Place onions in oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until onions are tender.
Stir occasionally to prevent burning. Remove from oven and set aside.
4. Meanwhile, coat a large skillet in cooking spray and place over medium high
heat. Add the filets and cook for 5 – 7 minutes on each side or until
desired doneness. Top steaks evenly with cheese and onions.
