Ingredients
- 2 veal filets, about 14 oz. each
 - 3 tablespoons steak seasoning
 - 3 tablespoons maple pepper
 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
 - 1 tablespoon butter
 
Port Sauce
- 1 shallot, finely chopped
 - 1 tablespoon butter
 - 1/4 cup sherry vinegar
 - 1/2 cup white wine
 - 1/2 cup port
 - 1 1/4 cups veal stock
 - 1 tablespoon honey
 - Thyme to taste
 
Preparation
Port Sauce- In a small pot, brown the shallot in the butter. Deglaze with the vinegar and reduce by half. Deglaze again with the white wine and the port and reduce.
 - Add the veal stock, honey and thyme, then reduce until the sauce coats the back of a spoon. Pass the sauce through a sieve and set aside.
 
Veal Filets
- Combine the steak seasoning and maple pepper. Fully coat the veal filets with the spice blend.
 - Preheat the oven to 375°F.
 - In a large oven-proof pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Sear the filets on all sides for 4 to 5 minutes. Continue cooking in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, until the internal temperature of the meat reaches 147°F.
 - Remove the filets from the oven and set them on a cutting board. Cover loosely with foil.
 - Slice the filets and serve on the sauce.
