Filet Mignon Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Peel and chop the potatoes into chunks. Place them in a pot of cold, salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

2. 2

   Make Garlic Mashed Potatoes

   Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the garlic cloves, butter, and heavy cream. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt to taste. Stir in chopped chives.

3. 3

   Cook the Filet Mignon

   Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. Sear the filets in the hot skillet for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare (or until desired doneness).

4. 4

   Serve

   Plate the filet mignon alongside a generous serving of garlic mashed potatoes. Garnish with additional chives if desired.
