Filet and Sides

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Prepare the Garlic Mashed Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes into chunks. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, minced garlic, and milk. Mash until smooth and creamy. Stir in chopped chives, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Cook the Filet

    Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the filet for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time for desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the garlic mashed potatoes alongside the filet. Add your choice of side, and serve immediately.
