Filet Mignon

Sauce au Poivre

Grilled Prawns

Method

Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steaks

    Remove the filet mignon steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps them cook more evenly.

  2. 2

    Season the Steaks

    Generously season both sides of the steaks with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steaks

    Preheat the grill to high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes.

Sauce au Poivre

  1. 4

    Melt the Butter

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped shallot and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until softened.

  2. 5

    Add Peppercorns

    Add the green peppercorns and cook for an additional minute, stirring occasionally.

  3. 6

    Flambé with Cognac

    Carefully add the cognac to the pan. If desired, ignite the cognac using a long lighter to flambé. Allow the flames to subside.

  4. 7

    Add Cream and Season

    Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and freshly cracked black pepper. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly.

Grilled Prawns

  1. 8

    Marinate the Prawns

    In a bowl, combine the prawns, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let marinate for about 15 minutes.

  2. 9

    Grill the Prawns

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated prawns onto skewers. Grill the prawns for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and opaque.
