Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Bearnaise Sauce

In a saucepan, combine shallots, tarragon vinegar, and a pinch of salt. Simmer until reduced to about 2 tablespoons. In a bowl, whisk the egg yolks and the reduction together. Gradually add melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce thickens. Stir in chopped tarragon and season with salt and pepper.

2

Cook the Lobster

Boil a pot of salted water. Add the lobster tail and cook for about 6-8 minutes until the shell turns bright red. Remove and let cool, then cut the tail in half lengthwise.

3

Grill the Tenderloin

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the beef tenderloin with salt and black pepper. Grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your preferred doneness.

4

Grill the Asparagus

Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill for about 3-4 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

5

Plate the Dish

On a plate, place the grilled beef tenderloin, top with half of the lobster tail, and arrange the grilled asparagus on the side. Drizzle with bearnaise sauce and serve immediately.
