Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
-
Remove the lobster meat from the shell, and then place the meat on top of shell (for even cooking and presentation purposes). Place on a baking sheet and pour 1/4 cup of the wine on the baking sheet around the lobster. Cook in the oven for 15 to 18 minutes, depending on the size.
-
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and coat the grates with nonstick cooking spray.
-
Sprinkle the filets with salt, pepper and some granulated onion. Reduce the grill heat to medium and cook the filets for 4 to 6 minutes on each side for medium doneness.
-
Lightly spray the asparagus with nonstick cooking spray and then toss with salt, pepper and minced garlic. Lightly coat a medium pan with oil and heat over medium-low heat. Add the potatoes to the pan and cook 5 to 8 minutes on each side. Place the asparagus on the grill with the filets and cook for 5 to 7 minutes.
-
Lightly coat another medium pan with oil and heat over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, peppers and shallots, and saute for 2 minutes. Then add the remaining 1/4 cup wine. Add the butter to the pan and cook another 2 minutes, then remove from the heat.
-
Divide the potatoes between two serving plates and top with some chives. Place a filet mignon on each pile of potatoes, and top each with some mushroom sauce. Place the asparagus over the mushrooms and a lobster tail next to the filet mignon. Garnish with some chives to serve.
-
Cook's Note: If you have time, season the filet mignon the night before you want to eat it.
