Filet Mignon

Roasted Shallot Demi

Mashed Potatoes

Seasonal Vegetables

Method

Filet Mignon Preparation

  1. 1

    Sear the Steaks

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the filet mignon steaks with salt and black pepper. Sear each side for about 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, adjusting time for preferred doneness.

  2. 2

    Rest the Steaks

    Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for at least 5 minutes.

Roasted Shallot Demi

  1. 3

    Prepare Shallots

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the shallots in half and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and roast for 20-25 minutes until caramelized.

  2. 4

    Make the Demi

    In the same skillet used for the steaks, add red wine and scrape up any brown bits. Add the beef stock and thyme, simmering until reduced by half. Stir in the roasted shallots and butter to finish the sauce.

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 5

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to pot.

  2. 6

    Mash and Mix

    Add butter and milk to the potatoes. Mash until smooth and season with salt to taste.

Seasonal Vegetables

  1. 7

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Toss the seasonal vegetables with olive oil and salt. Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender.
