Ingredients

For the Filet Mignon:

• 2 filet mignon steaks (6-8 oz each)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter

For the Shrimp and Lobster Cream Sauce:

• 4-6 shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 4 oz cooked lobster meat, chopped
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup white wine (optional)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Filet Mignon

1. Season the Steaks: Start by seasoning the filet mignon steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides.
2. Sear the Steaks: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil or butter. Once hot, sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust the cooking time for your desired doneness. Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest while you prepare the sauce.

Shrimp and Lobster Cream Sauce

1. Cook the Shrimp: In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until pink, about 2-3 minutes. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
2. Sauté the Garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
3. Make the Sauce: Pour in the heavy cream and white wine (if using) and bring the mixture to a simmer. Let it cook for about 2 minutes to thicken slightly.
4. Add the Seafood: Return the shrimp to the skillet along with the chopped lobster meat. Stir everything together and let the sauce simmer for another minute. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Serving Suggestions

1. Plate the Steaks: Place the cooked filet mignon steaks on individual plates.
2. Top with Sauce: Spoon the shrimp and lobster cream sauce over the steaks.
3. Garnish: Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a pop of color and freshness.
4. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad.
