Land & Sea Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Crab Cake

   In a mixing bowl, combine crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Old Bay seasoning, breadcrumbs, and the egg. Mix gently to combine without breaking up the crab meat too much. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

2. 2

   Shape and Cook the Crab Cakes

   Form the crab mixture into patties. In a skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the crab cakes and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Filet Mignon

   Season the filet mignon with salt and pepper. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of butter and sear the filet for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

4. 4

   Make the Lemon Butter Sauce

   In a small saucepan, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and add minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in lemon juice and cook for an additional minute.

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   Place the seared filet on a plate, top with the crab cake, and drizzle with lemon butter sauce. Serve with your choice of two sides.
