Surf and Turf

Ingredients

• 2 lb filet mignon steaks
• 1 lb large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 4 tbsp unsalted butter
• 4 clove garlic
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
• 1 lemon
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1½ tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper

Steps

1. Pat the filet mignon steaks dry and season generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.
2. Preheat your grill to high heat. Grill the steaks for 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Let them rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes.
3. While the steaks rest, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until pink and opaque.
5. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the shrimp and sprinkle with fresh parsley, if using.
6. Slice the rested steaks against the grain. Serve the steak alongside the garlic butter shrimp.
