Get ready to indulge in a luxurious dining experience with this flavorful Surf and Turf Filet Mignon paired with succulent lobster tails! 🥩🦞
Ingredients:
- 4 filet mignon steaks
- 4 lobster tails
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 tbsp butter, divided
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup white wine (or chicken broth for a non-alcoholic option)
Directions:
1. First things first, fire up your grill or place a skillet over medium-high heat to get nice and hot. While it’s warming up, season your filet mignon steaks generously with salt and black pepper—don't be shy, this is where the flavor starts!
2. In a separate pot, bring some water to a boil. Add the lobster tails, and let them cook for about 5-7 minutes. You'll know they're done when they turn a beautiful bright red color!
3. Now, back to the skillet! Drizzle in the olive oil, then add those delicious steaks. Cook them for about 4-5 minutes on each side if you like them medium-rare.
4. In the last minute of cooking, toss in the butter and minced garlic into the pan. This is where the magic happens! Baste the steaks with the melted butter for some extra flavor.
5. Once cooked to perfection, allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes. This step is crucial for keeping them juicy!
6. Finally, plate up your delicious filet mignon alongside the lobster tails. Drizzle the remaining butter and a splash of white wine (or chicken broth) over everything for that gourmet touch. Enjoy every bite!
