Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 17

The horseradish cream:
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons peeled and finely grated horseradish root (about 1/2 ounce horseradish root) or substitute prepared horseradish
-- Salt and pepper to taste
The rosemary biscuits:
1/2 pound cold butter + 4 tablespoons melted butter to brush the scones
4 cups + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
11/3 cups whole milk
The sandwiches:
1 1/2 pounds filet mignon, or two 2-inch thick steaks
-- Vegetable oil
2 ounces baby arugula, sliced fine

Steps:

  • Instructions: For the horseradish cream: Combine ingredients in a small bowl, cover and refrigerate until ready to use. For the rosemary biscuits: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Dice cold butter, spread on a plate and chill in the freezer for 15 minutes. Combine flour, salt, baking powder, sugar and rosemary in food processor and pulse to combine thoroughly. Add cold butter and pulse until butter is the size of small peas. Pulse in milk until the mixture forms a dough. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into 4 equal pieces and gently pat each into a round disc 1/2 inch thick. Cut each circle into 6 wedges. Place on a baking sheet and bake until just done and barely golden, 10-12 minutes. Brush each wedge generously with melted butter and let cool. To assemble the sandwiches: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Season the meat well with salt and pepper to taste. Heat a heavy-bottomed medium skillet over medium-high heat. When very hot, add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom. When the oil is hot, add the meat and sear 3-4 minutes on one side. Flip over, place in the oven and roast until the meat reaches 128 degrees in the thickest part, 5-8 minutes. Remove from the oven, tent with foil and rest at least 10 minutes, then slice thinly. Split the biscuits. Spread the top of each with horseradish cream, the place the filet mignon and baby arugula on the bottom and close to form sandwiches.
