Method

Cooking the Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Sear the Filet

    Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Season the petite filet mignon with salt and black pepper. Sear each side for about 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from skillet and let rest.

Preparing the Chicken

  1. 2

    Cook the Chicken

    Season the chicken breast with salt and black pepper. In the same skillet, melt butter and cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. Remove and let rest.

Fried Lobster

  1. 3

    Prepare the Lobster

    Boil the lobster tail for about 5 minutes until cooked, then cool and remove the meat from the shell. Cut the meat into bite-sized pieces.

  2. 4

    Bread the Lobster

    Set up a breading station with flour, beaten eggs, and bread crumbs. Dip the lobster pieces in flour, then egg, and finally coat with bread crumbs.

  3. 5

    Fry the Lobster

    Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the breaded lobster pieces in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
