Method

Preparation & Cooking

  1. 1

    Preparing the Beef Tenderloin

    Season the 6oz Prime Beef Tenderloin on both sides with salt and black pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Cooking the Beef Tenderloin

    Add the seasoned beef tenderloin to the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Preparing the Lobster Tail

    Using kitchen scissors, cut the top shell of the cold water lobster tail lengthwise. Gently pull the meat out and place it on top of the shell. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Cooking the Lobster Tail

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the lobster tail on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Making Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes

    Roast 4 cloves of garlic by wrapping them in foil and placing them in the oven for 30 minutes. Once roasted, mash the garlic and mix it with 2 cups of cooked and mashed potatoes. Add salt to taste.

  6. 6

    Preparing Seasonal Vegetables

    Steam or sauté 2 cups of seasonal vegetables (like asparagus, green beans, or carrots) until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

  7. 7

    Plating

    On a plate, place the roasted garlic mashed potatoes, the sautéed seasonal vegetables, and the rested beef tenderloin. Add the lobster tail to the side. Drizzle with rosemary demi glace and top with compound herb butter.
