Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fries

    Cook the fries according to package instructions or your preferred method until golden and crispy.

  2. 2

    Season the Fillet Medallions

    Season the fillet medallions with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Sear the Fillet

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the fillet medallions and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium doneness.

  4. 4

    Add Bleu Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, top each medallion with a portion of bleu cheese and cover the skillet to allow the cheese to melt slightly.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Plate

    Once cooked, remove the fillet medallions from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes. On a plate, place a bed of fresh arugula.

  6. 6

    Serve the Dish

    Place the crusted fillet medallions on top of the arugula, drizzle with truffle demi-glace, and serve alongside the fries.
