Best Filet Mignon Béarnaise With Roasted Cauliflower Recipes

PERFECT FILET MIGNON WITH BEARNAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Make the steaks: Liberally season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper to taste. Place on a wire rack over a baking sheet. Let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes. If letting stand for more than 1 hour, keep in refrigerator, then remove and let stand for 30 minutes.
• For the bearnaise: Boil vinegar, wine, and shallots, with 1/3 of the fresh tarragon, pepper, and salt over medium heat until liquid is about 2 tablespoons or 1/4 cup including shallots and herbs. Strain mixture and let cool.
• Whisk the egg yolks in the same saucepan over very low heat until thickened. Add 1 tablespoon of cold butter and thicken the egg yolks. Beat in 1 additional tablespoon of cold butter and add the rest of the tarragon.
• Blend everything in a blender. Add in the 3/4 cups of melt butter drop by drop until the bearnaise sauce is thickened.
• Preheat the oven to 250º F. Insert an internal thermometer with probe and place steaks on pan in oven. Cook until internal temperature reaches between 125º and 127º, about 25-30 minutes. Remove from oven.
• Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes while steaks rest. Pat steaks dry. Carefully place steaks in skillet and sear on one side for 30 seconds. Add remaining butter and flip steak, searing other side for 30 seconds. Remove from skillet and serve with bearnaise sauce.

FILET MIGNON WITH BLENDER BEARNAISE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Take the beef tenderloin and drizzle with olive oil. Season well all over with plenty of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper all over. Make sure it is at room temperature before cooking. Place a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat on the stove top and sear tenderloin all over. Place the whole pan in the oven and roast the tenderloin for 15-17 minutes (depending on how thick your tenderloin is). An instant-read thermometer when inserted into the thickest part of the meat should read 130 degrees F for medium-rare. If you want it medium, cook for a further 3 minutes in the oven. Remove from the oven and tent with foil while you let it rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
• Make the bearnaise reduction first. In a small saucepan, combine half of the tarragon, shallots, vinegar and wine over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until reduced by half. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
• Blend yolks and bearnaise reduction together in a blender. With the blender running, add 1/3 of the butter in a slow steady stream. Once it emulsifies, turn the blender speed up to high and add the remaining butter. Add the remaining half bunch of fresh tarragon leaves, season with salt and pepper and give it 1 more buzz. Set aside in a warm spot to hold the sauce.

PAN ROASTED FILET MIGNON WITH ASPARAGUS SEA BASS WITH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER PUREE

Steps:

• In a small pot, over medium-low heat, add the vinegar and brown sugar, and whisk to combine. Cook and reduce until thick, about the consistency of maple syrup. Whisk in 2 tablespoons butter and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve drizzled over filet mignon and asparagus.
• For Filet and Asparagus:
• Slice the bottom 1 1/2 inches off the asparagus. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat. Add the asparagus and blanch for 1 minute. Remove from the water and shock in an ice bath. Transfer the asparagus from the ice bath to a sheet pan lined with a paper towel.
• Take the filets out of the refrigerator 20 minutes before they are to be cooked so they can come to temperature.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
• Heat canola oil in a large heavy bottomed skilled over high heat. Season each filet liberally with salt and pepper. Sear the filets in the skillet until brown and crispy, about 2 minutes per side. Turn the heat to low and add the 4 tablespoons of butter, the garlic and fresh thyme. Using a spoon, baste the filets with the melted butter. Put the pan in the oven for 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare or until the internal temperature reaches 130 to 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
• Heat a small amount of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and saute until heated through, about 2 minutes. Asparagus should be slightly tender but still have a little snap when you bite into them.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• To a large baking dish add the cauliflower, apple, and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to coat. Roast in oven until brown on top, about 25 minutes, then add the vegetable stock and roast until tender, another 20 minutes.
• Add the roasted cauliflower, apple and stock to a food processor and puree until smooth. Transfer to a metal bowl and put over a pot of simmering water to keep warm.
• Turn oven down to 325 degrees F.
• Heat some canola oil in a large heavy bottomed skilled over high heat. Season each fillet liberally with salt and pepper. Sear the fillets, skin side down, until brown and crispy, turn over and crisp the other side, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Turn off the heat, add butter and, using a spoon, baste the fillets with the melted butter. Transfer to the oven to finish cooking, about 4 minutes.
• Beurre Blanc Sauce:
• Slice the green leaves off the leek and discard. Slice the stem into 1/4-inch thick rings. Put them into a large bowl filled with cold water and let soak for 5 minutes. Remove the leaks and drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and saute until soft, about 4 minutes. Deglaze the pan with white wine and add the vegetable stock. Reduce by half and then whisk in the cold butter. Serve over sea bass.
• To Plate:
• Using a rectangular plate lay a bed of 3 to 4 asparagus down on 1 side of the plate. Arrange a piece of filet mignon on top and drizzle with the balsamic reduction. On the other side of the plate put about a 1/4 cup of the cauliflower puree, top with a piece of sea bass and drizzle with the leek sauce. Repeat with remaining ingredients to make a total of 6 servings.

FILET MIGNON BéARNAISE WITH ROASTED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450˚F. Place a wire rack on a baking sheet lined with foil, and set it aside.
• Heat a large cast-iron pan over high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper to taste. When the pan is hot, spray it with cooking spray and add the steaks. Sear the steaks until dark golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side.
• Transfer the steaks to the wire rack, place the baking sheet in the oven, and roast for 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and tent it with foil to keep the steaks warm.
• Respray the cast-iron pan generously with cooking spray, and return it to high heat. Add the cauliflower and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts to brown, about 4 minutes. Season the cauliflower with salt and pepper to taste, transfer the pan to the oven, and roast until the cauliflower is tender, about 7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the vinegar, wine, shallots, and tarragon in a medium saucepan, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook until the liquid has reduced by about half.
• In a small bowl, whisk the chicken broth into the cornstarch. Whisk the mixture into the vinegar mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until the sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the yogurt.
• Season the béarnaise sauce with salt and pepper to taste, if desired. Serve the steaks and cauliflower with the sauce.
