# Ingredients:
→ Steak
01 -
4 filet mignon steaks (6-8 oz each)
02 -
Salt and pepper to taste
03 -
2 tablespoons butter or oil for cooking
→ Seafood and Sauce
04 -
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
05 -
8 oz lobster meat, chopped into bite-sized pieces
06 -
1 cup heavy cream
07 -
4 tablespoons butter
08 -
3 cloves garlic, minced
09 -
¼ cup white wine (optional)
10 -
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
# Steps:
01 -
Season your filet mignon steaks generously with salt and pepper. Heat butter or oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the steaks to your preferred doneness - about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove steaks and let them rest while you make the sauce.
02 -
In the same skillet, add more butter and sauté the minced garlic until it smells amazing, about 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and lobster meat, cooking until the shrimp turn pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes. Remove seafood and set aside.
03 -
Pour white wine into the skillet to deglaze if using, scraping up any tasty brown bits. Add heavy cream and let it simmer until the sauce thickens nicely, about 3-4 minutes. Return the seafood to warm through in the sauce.
04 -
Place each filet mignon on a plate and generously spoon the shrimp and lobster cream sauce over the top. Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for color and freshness.
05 -
Serve immediately with your favorite sides like creamy mashed potatoes or steamed asparagus. This is restaurant-quality dining at home!
