Cooking Instructions

1

Sauté the filet mignon tips

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the filet mignon tips and season with salt, pepper, and Cajun seasoning. Sauté until browned and cooked to your desired doneness, about 4-6 minutes for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

2

Prepare the Cajun cream sauce

In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Pour in the heavy cream, stirring to combine, and bring to a simmer. Add the grated Parmesan cheese and stir until melted and smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

3

Combine and serve

Return the sautéed filet mignon tips to the skillet, coating them in the Cajun cream sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until heated through. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley.
