Filet Mignon

Blue Cheese Butter

Mashed Potatoes

Red Wine Demi

Brussels Sprouts

Method

Cooking the Filet

  1. 1

    Season the Filet

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

  2. 2

    Sear the Filet

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

  3. 3

    Rest the Filet

    Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Making Blue Cheese Butter

  1. 4

    Prepare the Butter

    In a bowl, mix the unsalted butter at room temperature with crumbled blue cheese, minced garlic, and chopped parsley until well combined.

  2. 5

    Chill the Butter

    Transfer the mixture to a piece of parchment paper, shape it into a log, and refrigerate until firm.

Preparing Mashed Potatoes

  1. 6

    Cook the Potatoes

    Place the peeled and cubed potatoes in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 7

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add milk, butter, salt, and black pepper, and mash until creamy and smooth.

Making Red Wine Demi

  1. 8

    Sauté Shallots

    In the same skillet used for the filet, add minced shallots and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes.

  2. 9

    Deglaze and Reduce

    Pour in the red wine and scrape up any brown bits from the skillet. Bring to a simmer and reduce by half.

  3. 10

    Add Stock and Thicken

    Add beef stock and thyme, and simmer until reduced and slightly thickened. Stir in butter before serving.

Cooking Brussels Sprouts

  1. 11

    Prepare Brussels Sprouts

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss trimmed Brussels sprouts with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 12

    Roast Brussels Sprouts

    Spread the Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
