Fries

Steak and Vegetables

Cheese Sauce

Method

Prepare the Fries

  1. 1

    Cook the Fries

    Preheat the oven and cook the frozen steak fries according to the package instructions, usually around 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy. Toss with cooking oil before baking for extra crispiness.

Cook the Steak and Vegetables

  1. 2

    Sear the Filet Mignon

    Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. In a hot skillet over medium-high heat, add a little oil and sear the filet for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.

  2. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the minced shallots, sliced shiitake mushrooms, and bell peppers. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Cut the rested filet mignon into thin strips and add to the skillet. Toss everything together and cook for another 2 minutes.

Make the Cheese Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Cheese Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk for about 1-2 minutes until bubbly and golden. Gradually whisk in the milk and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly until it thickens. Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, and shredded Havarti cheese until melted and smooth.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the fries are done, place them on a serving platter. Top with the steak and vegetable mixture, and drizzle the cheese sauce generously over the top. Serve hot and enjoy!
