Cook Time:
1 Hr 5 Min
Serves:2
Ingredients
2 – 7 oz. filets mignon
1 ½ cups chopped wild mushrooms
1 shallot, minced
1 egg, whisked with 1 tbsp. water
1 tbsp. butter
1 tbsp. olive oil
2 sheets of puff pastry dough, cut into rectangles 8 in. by 5 in.
Salt and pepper
Directions
Season the filets with salt and pepper and sear in a hot pan with the olive
oil. Bake in a 425 degree oven until you reach an internal temperature of
130. Cool completely. Saute the shallots and mushrooms in the butter,
season with salt and pepper. Drain any excess juices. Lay out the puff
squares and place 1/4 of the mushrooms in the middle, the same diameter of
the filet. Place filet atop mushrooms and another ¼ of mushrooms atop
filet. Fold pastry around, seal, and brush with egg wash. Bake at 400 for
10 – 15 minutes or until puff is golden. Serve with your favorite sauces
and sides.
Pork loin is relatively inexpensive and delicious. Cabbage even more so. show recipe
