Fillet Of Beef With Roquefort Butter La Residence Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Place the beef on a baking sheet and pat the outside dry with a paper towel. Spread the butter on with your hands. Sprinkle evenly with the salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for exactly 22 minutes for rare and 25 minutes for medium-rare.
• Remove the beef from the oven, cover it tightly with aluminum foil, and allow it to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes. Remove the strings and slice the filet thickly.

Steps:

• Combine the butter, cheese, onion, chives, parsley, shallots, garlic, salt and pepper. Beat well to blend.
• Spoon the mixture into the center of a length of waxed paper and roll into a neat sausage shape, about 1 1/2 inches thick. Chill thoroughly.
• Meanwhile preheat a charcoal grill (see note) and preheat the oven to 350 degrees
• Place each filet on a flat surface and pound lightly with a mallet to flatten slightly. Sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper and brush both sides with a little oil.
• Place the filets on the heated grill and cook, turning once, about three to four minutes on each side, or to the desired degree of doneness. Place the steaks on six ovenproof dinner plates.
• Cut the butter roll into six individual slices. Arrange one slice of butter on each steak. Place in the oven about two minutes or less or until the butter is melted. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Place the butter and Roquefort cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on medium speed until smooth. Add the scallions and mix until combined. Cut a strip of parchment paper 4 1/2 inches wide and place the mixture on the short end of the paper. Roll into a log about 1 inch in diameter, rolling the parchment paper around the butter mixture. Chill.

Steps:

• Place 1/2 cup butter and cheese in small bowl.
• Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed.
• Stir in parsley, chives and pepper.
• Place butter mixture onto plastic food wrap; form into 4" log.
• Refrigerate until firm(about 1 hour).
• Sprinkle steaks with salt.
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in 12" skillet until sizzling; add garlic for 30 seconds.
• Add steaks to garlic infused butter.
• Cook over medium-high heat 4 minutes, turning once, until brown.
• Add wine.
• Cover, and continue cooking, turning once, until steak is at desired doneness(5-10 mins).
• Meanwhile, remove butter mixture from refrigerator; let stand at least 15 minutes.
• To serve, cut butter into 6 slices; place 1 slice on center of each hot steak.
• Serve steaks with any remaining pan juices, if desired.
• TIP: To keep the butter in a tubular shape versus having one side flatten by resting on the refrigerator shelf, try this trick. Cut the tube from an empty roll of paper towels crosswise into a 4" length. Make one lengthwise cut in the tube. Place plastic wrapped butter log in cardboard tube and refrigerate.

• Serve with sauteed mushrooms, white baked potatoes, roasted asparagus, freshly baked bread, and red wine.
• Enjoy!
