Filet Mignon

Rosemary Fingerling Potatoes

Method

Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the filet mignon out of the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Preheat the grill to high heat.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the filet mignon with olive oil. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Grill the Steak

    Place the filet mignon on the grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy (130°F for medium-rare).

  4. 4

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Mushroom Blue Cheese Sauce

  1. 5

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes.

  2. 6

    Cook the Mushrooms

    Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan. Cook until they are browned and have released their moisture, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 7

    Add Cream and Cheese

    Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a simmer. Stir in the blue cheese and cook until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.

Rosemary Fingerling Potatoes

  1. 8

    Prepare Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash the fingerling potatoes and cut them in half lengthwise.

  2. 9

    Season and Roast

    In a bowl, toss the halved fingerling potatoes with olive oil, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet in a single layer.

  3. 10

    Bake Potatoes

    Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and tender, flipping halfway through.
