A luxurious one-pan meal featuring tender filet mignon, juicy shrimp, and a decadent garlic butter cream sauce!
Ingredients
For the Filet Mignon and Shrimp:
4 filet mignon medallions
8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Garlic Butter Cream Sauce:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

Instructions
Prepare the Filet Mignon:
Season the filet mignon medallions with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare or to your desired doneness. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Shrimp:
In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and tender. Remove and set aside.
Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
Reduce the heat to medium and melt butter in the skillet. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and Dijon mustard. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper.
Combine:
Return the filet mignon and shrimp to the skillet, spooning the sauce over them. Simmer for 2-3 minutes to meld the flavors.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the dish and serve hot with a side of mashed potatoes, rice, or steamed vegetables.
