Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Asparagus

Trim the ends of the asparagus and blanch in boiling salted water for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain and set aside.

2

Cook the Filet Mignon

Season the filet mignon with salt and pepper. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a tablespoon of oil. Sear the filet for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest for 5 minutes.

3

Prepare the Lobster Medallions

In the same skillet, add the lobster medallions and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from heat.

4

Plate the Dish

On a plate, arrange the asparagus on one side, place the sliced filet mignon next to it, and top with lobster medallions. Drizzle with béarnaise sauce and serve.
