Method

For the Grilled Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steaks

    Remove filet mignon steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Season the Steaks

    Rub the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steaks

    Preheat the grill to high heat. Grill the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is achieved.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steaks

    Remove steaks from the grill and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

For the Potato Pavé

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and thinly slice the russet potatoes using a mandoline or a sharp knife.

  2. 6

    Layer the Potatoes

    In a greased baking dish, layer the potato slices, seasoning each layer with salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme.

  3. 7

    Add Cream and Butter

    Melt the butter and mix it with the heavy cream. Pour this mixture evenly over the layered potatoes.

  4. 8

    Bake

    Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

  5. 9

    Slice and Serve

    Let the potato pavé cool slightly, then cut into squares to serve.

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Wash and trim the ends of the jumbo asparagus spears.

  2. 11

    Season the Asparagus

    In a bowl, toss the asparagus with balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 12

    Grill the Asparagus

    Grill the asparagus over medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until tender and slightly charred.

For the Worcestershire Reduction

  1. 13

    Prepare the Reduction

    In a small saucepan, bring Worcestershire sauce to a simmer over medium heat.

  2. 14

    Thicken the Sauce

    Cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted and well combined.
