Method

Preparing the Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly on both sides of the filet mignon pieces.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the filet mignon and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust time for desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Add Butter and Garlic

    Reduce heat to medium-low, add butter and smashed garlic cloves to the skillet. Baste the steak with the melted butter for an additional 2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Preparing the Lobster Tails

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 6

    Prepare the Lobster

    Using kitchen scissors, carefully cut the top shell of the lobster tails lengthwise, exposing the meat. Gently pull the meat out and rest it on top of the shell.

  3. 7

    Season the Lobster

    In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, and paprika. Brush this mixture generously over the lobster meat.

  4. 8

    Bake the Lobster

    Place the lobster tails on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

  5. 9

    Garnish and Serve

    Once baked, remove the lobster from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving alongside the filet mignon.
