Filet mignon with sautéed onions and baby bellas on top of shredded brussel sprouts with bacon So I was out of town the last few days and missing the kitchen, plus I figured I'd make something special for Scott. He usually only eats frozen pizza and power bars when I'm not home. He loves steak and filet was on sale so I figured why not :) this makes enough for two people. Ingredients: 2 8oz filets Approximately 15 brussel sprouts; ends trimmed, cut in half and shredded 3 slices of bacon, diced 8oz package of baby bella mushrooms; sliced 1/2 medium white onion, sliced pole to pole 4 Tbsp EVOO 2 Tbsp unsalted butter Salt pepper Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 2. In a cold pan, place bacon and set to medium low heat. 3. In another pan, add 2 Tbsp EVOO and heat on medium high heat. 4. In a last pan, add sliced mushrooms and onions and the add the other 2 Tbsp of EVOO. 5. Cook bacon until crisp and remove to a paper towel with a slotted spoon then add shredded brussel sprouts to the pan. 6. Season filets with salt and pepper then add to last pan and cook for 2 minutes per side. Remove from stove and cook in oven for 8 minutes for medium to rare. 7. Season mushrooms and onions with salt and pepper and let brown. Finish with 1Tbsp of butter. 8. Continue sautéing brussel sprouts until crisp and then add pepper and bacon. 9. Remove filets, add 1/2 Tbsp on top of each filet and let rest 5 minutes. 10. Arrange brussel sprout mixture on the bottom, top with filet and then add mushroom mixture on top. Enjoy!
