Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the sweet potatoes and poke holes in them with a fork. Bake for 45-60 minutes, until tender.

  2. 2

    Prep the Vegetables

    While the sweet potatoes are baking, trim the asparagus and slice the carrots. Steam or blanch them until tender.

Cooking the Meat and Lobster

  1. 3

    Cook the Filet Mignon

    Season the filet mignon with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove and let rest.

  2. 4

    Grill the Lobster

    Cut the lobster tails in half lengthwise. Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

Making the Butter Sauce

  1. 5

    Prepare the Butter Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Add any remaining lobster meat, if using, and let simmer for a few minutes.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On each plate, place a filet mignon topped with grilled lobster. Drizzle with the butter sauce and serve with the steamed vegetables and baked sweet potatoes.
