Season the beef with salt and pepper. Heat oil over moderate heat in a small heavy skillet until hot but not smoking, then cook filets 2 to 3 minutes on each side for rare. Let stand on a cutting board, tented loosely with foil, 5 minutes. While filets are standing, deglaze skillet with wine over moderate heat, scraping up brown bits. Add broth and water and boil until reduced to about 1/4 cup.

Thinly slice filets and serve with sauce.
