Filet Mignon

Mashed Potatoes

Garlic Spinach

Method

Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the filet mignon out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Pat the filet mignon dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Sear the Steak

    In a cast iron skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the filet mignon. Sear for 3-4 minutes without moving, until a golden-brown crust forms.

  4. 4

    Add Garlic Butter

    Flip the steak and add the butter and garlic cloves to the skillet. As the butter melts, spoon it over the steak. Cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare or longer for desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Mashed Potatoes

  1. 6

    Boil the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes into equal-sized chunks. Place them in a pot, cover with salted water, and bring to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 7

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add milk, butter, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Garlic Spinach

  1. 8

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  2. 9

    Add Spinach

    Add the fresh spinach to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the spinach is wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Season with salt.
