Grilled 8 Oz. Filet Mignon Recipe

Preparation and Cooking Steps

1. 1

   Prepare the Gorgonzola Butter

   In a small bowl, mix the gorgonzola cheese and unsalted butter together until well combined. Set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the Gratinato

   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice the leeks, potatoes, and mushrooms. In a pot, heat olive oil over medium heat, then add the leeks and cook until softened. Add the potatoes and mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5-7 minutes.

3. 3

   Bake the Gratinato

   Transfer the mixture to a baking dish, cover with foil, and bake in the preheated oven for about 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy on top.

4. 4

   Grill the Filet Mignon

   Preheat the grill to high heat. Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. Grill the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is achieved.

5. 5

   Sauté the Escarole

   In a skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the escarole and sauté until wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

6. 6

   Plate and Serve

   On each plate, place a portion of the gratinato, top with the grilled filet mignon, add a dollop of gorgonzola butter on top of the steak, and drizzle demi-glace around. Garnish with sautéed escarole.
