Filet Mignon with Shrimp and Lobster Cream Sauce
Ingredients
- 4 filet mignon steaks
- 8 large shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup lobster meat chopped
- 1/4 cup white wine
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Cook the Filet Mignon:
- Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and let rest.
Cook the Shrimp:
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp of butter and cook the shrimp until pink and opaque, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Lobster Cream Sauce:
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with white wine, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in the heavy cream and lobster meat. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
Serve:
- Place the filet mignon on a plate, top with shrimp, and drizzle with the lobster cream sauce. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately
