Cooking the Filet Mignon

1. Prepare the Steak

Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2. Sear the Steak

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

3. Rest the Steak

Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Making the Jack Daniel's Cream Sauce

4. Sauté Shallots and Garlic

In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced shallots and garlic, sauté until translucent.

5. Add Whiskey and Cream

Carefully add Jack Daniel's whiskey and let it reduce for 1-2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, salt, and black pepper, and let simmer until thickened.

Preparing Au Gratin Potatoes

6. Preheat Oven

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

7. Layer the Potatoes

Grease a baking dish with butter. Layer half of the sliced potatoes, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and half of the cheddar cheese. Repeat with the remaining potatoes and cheese.

8. Add Cream and Bake

Pour heavy cream over the layered potatoes, covering evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until golden and bubbly.
