Filet Mignon Drizzle With A Maple Balsamic Recipes

Steps:

• Boil the balsamic vinegar and sugar in a heavy small saucepan over medium-high heat until reduced to 1/3 cup, stirring occasionally, about 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat the broiler. Melt the butter in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Cook the steaks to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer the steaks to a baking sheet. Crumble the cheese over the steaks and broil just until the cheese melts, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with pepper.
• Transfer the steaks to plates. Drizzle the balsamic sauce around the steaks and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Combine balsamic vinegar, bourbon and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl.
• 2. Rinse and pat dry filet mignon and place in a shallow dish. Pour half of the marinade over the steaks (you'll use the other half with the mushrooms), turning to coat.
• 3. Place in the refrigerator for an hour, turning after 30 minutes. (I cut the steaks in half horizontally to reduce cooking time.)
• 4. Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees.
• 5. In a cast iron skillet or other oven-proof pan, melt 2 tbsp butter over medium high heat.
• 6. Place steaks in the skillet and allow to sear, untouched, 3 minutes. Discard the marinade in the dish the steaks were in.
• 7. Turn steaks and remove from heat.
• 8. Place the skillet in the oven for 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the steak.
• 9. While the steaks finish, melt remaining 2 tbs butter in a saute pan over medium heat.
• 10. Add mushrooms and saute until soft, 5 minutes. Pour half of the remaining marinade over the mushrooms, add thyme, reduce heat and continue to saute 6-8 minutes.
• 11. Taste at this point and add more marinade to the mushrooms, for a stronger flavor, if desired.
• 12. Plate steaks when done. Spoon mushrooms over the top.

Steps:

• 1. To make the roasted tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the cherry tomatoes and garlic in a large baking dish in a single layer. Sprinkle them with Greek oregano, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and brown sugar. Mix well. Roast for 40 minutes.
• 2. To make the Parmesan potato croquettes: Boil the potatoes in enough salt water to cover for 10 to 15 minutes, or until fork tender. Drain. Saute the green onions and garlic in extra-virgin olive oil for a few minutes, until the onions are translucent and garlic is golden. In a big bowl, combine the onion and garlic mixture with the boiled potatoes. Add Parmesan cheese, sea salt, freshly ground pepper, and mash together. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• 3. Pour enough olive oil to come 1/4-inch up the side of a heavy fry pan and heat to 375 degrees F. Roll the chilled potato mixture into finger shapes. Dip the fingers in the beaten egg, then coat them in Italian-seasoned bread crumbs. Fry the croquettes in the hot oil for 30 seconds, until all sides are equally crispy and golden.
• 4. To make the filet mignon: Season the steaks with a pinch of steak spice. Heat the canola oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Add the steaks to the hot pan. Sear the steaks for 2 minutes on each side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the steaks for another 2 minutes per side. Tent the cooked steaks in aluminum foil and let them rest for 10 minutes.
• 5. To make the balsamic syrup: Heat a pan on medium-high heat, add equal parts maple syrup and balsamic vinegar, and stir for 3 to 5 minutes until the sauce is bubbling and slightly reduced. Serve immediately, drizzled over the filet mignon.

Steps:

• Sprinkle steaks generously with salt and pepper.
• Coat the bottom of a large, heavy frying pan with olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and cook to the desired doneness, 3-5 minutes on each side.
• Transfer to a platter and let rest, tented loosely with aluminum foil, while you make the sauce.
• In the same pan over medium-high heat, add the vinegar and deglaze by scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Cook until slightly reduced and thickened, about 3 minutes.
• Remove from the heat. Whisk in the butter to form a smooth sauce.
• To serve, transfer the steaks to individual plates, top with the sauce, and drizzle with a small amount of truffle oil.

Steps:

• Evenly season steaks on all sides with Spike/Aromat.
• Heat oil in large frying pan.
• Add Steaks and fry until done (I recommend medium-rare).
• Remove steaks from pan and place on a plate (do not empty pan).
• Add wine and cook until most alcohol has boiled off.
• Add Demi-Glace and stir until it has all dissolved.
• Add Butter and stir until completely melted.
• Add steak drippings, if there's not enough, use tongs to squeeze more from steaks.
• Cook sauce about 1 minute more, and pour over steaks.
• Serve immediately.
