Filet Mignon

Crab Topping

Béarnaise Sauce

Fries and Vegetables

Method

Prepare the Fries

  1. 1

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat olive oil in a deep fryer or large pot. Fry the cut potatoes until golden brown and crispy. Season with salt and pepper, then drain on paper towels.

Cook the Filet Mignon

  1. 2

    Sear the Steaks

    Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Rub the filet mignon steaks with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your preferred doneness.

Prepare the Crab Topping

  1. 3

    Combine the Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix the fresh crab meat, lemon juice, and chopped parsley. Set aside.

Make the Béarnaise Sauce

  1. 4

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks, white wine vinegar, shallots, and a pinch of salt. Slowly whisk the melted butter into the egg yolk mixture until thickened. Stir in chopped tarragon and season with salt and pepper.

Assemble the Dish

  1. 5

    Plate the Filet Mignon

    Place each filet mignon on a plate. Top with crab mixture, drizzle with béarnaise sauce, and serve alongside fries and seasonal vegetables.
