Filet Mignon Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes, then 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 and heavy cream, then mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    In a pan, heat a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the mixed vegetables and sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Filet Mignon

    Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  5. 5

    Sear the Filet

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the filet mignon and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust cooking time for desired doneness.

  6. 6

    Heat the Demi Glace

    In a small saucepan, heat the demi glace over low heat until warmed through.

  7. 7

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, serve the filet mignon with a drizzle of demi glace, a side of mashed potatoes, and sautéed vegetables.
