Buffalo Filet Mignon Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 2

    Mash the Sweet Potatoes

    Add butter and milk to the sweet potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Filet Mignon

    Rub the filet mignon with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

  4. 4

    Cook the Filet Mignon

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the filet mignon and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Brush buffalo sauce on both sides during the last minute of cooking.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Plate the buffalo filet mignon alongside a generous serving of mashed sweet potatoes. Garnish with chopped chives.
