FILET MIGNON WITH HONEY-DIJON VINAIGRETTE, LAVENDER FINE HERB GOAT CHEESE AND BUTTER LETTUCE
Steps:
- For the filet mignon: Remove the filet from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Heat a charcoal or gas grill to high for direct grilling.
- For the fine herb goat cheese: Mash together the cheese, parsley, chives, tarragon, lavender and black pepper in a small bowl.
- For the vinaigrette: Whisk together the honey, vinegar, mustard and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl until combined. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until emulsified.
- Brush the filet mignon with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt. Press the pepper onto the entire surface.
- Grill until golden brown and slightly charred on both sides and cooked to medium-rare doneness, about 6 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and let rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before thinly slicing
- Fill the lettuce leaves with a few thin slices of the filet, a small dollop of the goat cheese and a drizzle of the vinaigrette.

LAVENDER VINAIGRETTE
I found a bottle of Lavender vinegar in my pantry that someone must have given me at some point. I did a search to see what I could make with it, and found this recipe. I'm posting it here for safe keeping and ZWT II. I think plain honey could be used instead of the lavender honey.
