Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 475 degrees F.
- For the seasoning: Combine the garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, salt and cayenne.
- For the surf and turf: Rub 1 tablespoon of the butter over the tenderloin then sprinkle lightly with the Cajun seasoning. Place in the oven for approximately 25 to 30 minutes.
- After about 25 minutes check the tenderloin; you want a temperature of 120 to 125 degrees F on a meat thermometer for medium rare to rare. Remove the tenderloin from the oven and rest it for 10 to 15 minutes.
- In another skillet, add 3 tablespoons of the butter and heat to melt. Throw in the onions, green peppers and red peppers, then cook until golden brown and colored, but still somewhat crisp, a couple of minutes. Add the garlic and cook around for 30 to 45 seconds. Remove the veggies to a plate.
- Heat the same skillet over high heat, and then pour in the wine and chicken broth. Cook on high for 3 to 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the skillet to deglaze. Reduce the heat to medium-low heat and pour in the cream, stirring or whisking constantly. Cook the sauce until the cream starts to thicken the mixture, a few minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
- Add the cooked vegetables to the sauce, making sure to include all the juices that have drained onto the plate. Stir and cook until the mixture is bubbly and hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Next add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter to a skillet and melt the butter over high heat. Throw the shrimp into the skillet and sprinkle them lightly with some of the remaining Cajun seasoning. Cook the shrimp until opaque and deep golden brown with some dark brown parts. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Serve the veggies and shrimp in their skillets and the tenderloin on a platter.

Steps:
- Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain when pasta is still al dente; do not overcook! Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Season steaks generously with Cajun spice. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks until dark golden brown on both sides. Remove to an oven-safe plate or dish. Place in the oven and continue cooking until medium rare, about 12 minutes. Add additional 1 tablespoon butter and another tablespoon olive oil to the skillet and allow to melt/get hot. Season shrimp liberally with Cajun spice and throw into the skillet. Cook until opaque and deep golden brown. Remove to a plate and set aside. Throw in onion and bell pepper, then cook for a couple of minutes until golden brown and color but still somewhat crisp. Add garlic and cook around for 30-45 seconds. Remove veggies to a plate and set aside. With the pan over high heat, pour in the wine and chicken broth. Cook on high for 3 to 5 minutes, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze. Reduce heat to medium-low and pour in cream, stirring/whisking constantly. Cook sauce over medium-low heat for a few minutes, until cream starts to thicken the mixture. Add Parmesan and stir to melt. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Finally, add vegetables to the sauce, making sure to include all the juices that have drained onto the plate. Stir and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until mixture is bubbly and hot. Add drained fettuccine, minced parsley, and toss to combine. Splash in more chicken broth if it needs more liquid. Mound pasta on plates and nest a warm steak in the middle. Arrange shrimp around the edge of the plate. Sprinkle with a little more minced parsley and serve! Posted by Ree on September 9 2012
