Surf & Turf Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lobster

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with minced garlic over medium heat. Cut the lobster tails lengthwise and brush with the garlic butter mixture. Place them on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Filet Mignon

    While the lobster is baking, season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. Heat a skillet over high heat, add olive oil, and sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Add the remaining butter towards the end of cooking for added flavor.

  3. 3

    Finishing Touches

    Once both the filet and lobster are cooked, remove them from heat. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the lobster and sprinkle chopped parsley over both the steak and lobster for garnish.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the filet mignon alongside the baked lobster tails and enjoy your gourmet surf and turf dish!
