Eggs Benedict with Filet Mignon
Eggs Benedict with Filet Mignon

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

4 eggs
Microwaveable Egg Poacher (see directions below)
4 – 4-ounce filet mignons
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Extra virgin olive oil for pan searing the filet mignons
4 English muffins, fork split
Blender Hollandaise (with a kick) Sauce ~ recipe follows
4 cups Mixed Field Greens
Juice of 1 lemon
Greek olive oil
For Blender Hollandaise (with a kick) Sauce:
4 egg yolks ~ using pasteurized eggs
2 teaspoons water
2 teaspoons lemon juice
2 sticks unsalted butter – melted
Salt to taste
1 tablespoon sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo

Directions:


Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.


Coat a grill pan lightly with olive oil and bring to a medium – high heat. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and place them on the pre-heated
grill pan. Mark them well on both sides.


Transfer the steaks to the oven and roast for about 4 – 5 minutes until the meat is medium-rare.


Toast the English muffins and butter them lightly. Place one steak on each English muffin.


Place 1 egg on each steak. Top with the Hollandaise (with a kick) Sauce.


Toss the greens with lemon juice, and dress with olive oil and salt. Garnish each plate with the dressed greens.


To poach eggs in the microwave:


I use the Norpro Silicone Microwave Double Egg Poacher and poach my eggs in an 1100-watt microwave at 50 percent power, I poach the eggs for two minutes to get poached eggs with a slightly runny yolk. Do not add water to the cups and there is no need to pierce the yolk. The eggs slide right out. Some microwaves cook at higher watt power – you may have poached eggs in slightly less time so it’s best to test one batch before you plan to make this recipe.







For Blender Hollandaise (with a kick) Sauce:




In a blender blend yolks, water and lemon juice until smooth. Add the hot melted butter by very slowly until sauce begins to emulsify. Add in the tablespoon
of sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo

 

Season the sauce with salt to taste. Keep the sauce warm over a pot of barely simmering water – never allowing the water to touch the bottom of the
bowl.

 

Please note: This recipe contains raw eggs - pasteurized eggs are essential!
