Filet Mignon Recipe

Preparation and Cooking

1. 1

   Prepare the Compound Butter

   In a bowl, combine the softened butter, gorgonzola cheese, toasted pecans, minced garlic, and chopped parsley. Mix well until combined. Shape into a log, wrap in parchment paper, and refrigerate until firm.

2. 2

   Grill the Filet Mignon

   Preheat the grill to high heat. Rub the filet mignon with olive oil, and season generously with salt and black pepper. Grill the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium rare, or until desired doneness is achieved.

3. 3

   Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

   Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash with milk and butter until smooth and creamy. Season with salt to taste.

4. 4

   Cook the Vegetables

   Sauté the vegetable of choice in a bit of olive oil until tender-crisp. Season with salt and pepper.

5. 5

   Serve

   Place the grilled filet mignon on a plate, top with a slice of the pecan gorgonzola compound butter. Serve alongside the creamy mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables.
