FILET MIGNON WITH SHRIMP AND LOBSTER CREAM SAUCE 🥩🦞🍤
📋 Ingredients:
4 (6-ounce) filet mignon steaks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup finely chopped shallots
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 ounces shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 ounces lobster meat, chopped
1/2 cup grape juice
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
👩🍳 Directions:
1️⃣ Cook the Filet Mignon:
Season filet mignon steaks with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks and cook to your desired doneness (about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare).
Transfer steaks to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
2️⃣ Make the Cream Sauce:
In the same skillet, add chopped shallots and minced garlic. Sauté until softened, about 2 minutes.
Add shrimp and lobster meat, cooking until just opaque, about 2-3 minutes.
3️⃣ Deglaze and Simmer:
Deglaze the pan with grape juice, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Stir in the heavy cream and thyme. Simmer until the sauce slightly thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
4️⃣ Finish the Sauce:
Remove from heat and stir in the butter until melted and fully incorporated.
5️⃣ Serve:
Spoon the shrimp and lobster cream sauce over the filet mignon steaks and serve immediately.
