Hey foodies! Today, we’re about to level up your dinner game with a fancy but easy Garlic Mushroom Surf and Turf Filet. It’s like something you’d order at a 5-star restaurant but made right in your kitchen.

We’re talking juicy filet mignon, buttery shrimp, and garlicky mushrooms that taste like heaven. Let’s do this!

Ingredients

For the Steak:

  • 2 filet mignons (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Garlic Butter Shrimp:

  • 10-12 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the Garlic Mushrooms:

  • 1 cup mushrooms (button or cremini)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp thyme (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste


How to Make It

Step 1: Prep Like a Pro

  • Pat the steaks dry with paper towels (fancy chef move).
  • Season both sides with salt and pepper. Let them chill for a bit while you prep the shrimp and mushrooms.

Step 2: Sear That Steak

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. When it’s HOT, add the filets.
  2. Sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until you get that chef’s kiss crust.
  3. Add butter and spoon it over the steak while it cooks for another minute.
  4. Remove steaks and let them rest (don’t skip this; it locks in the juiciness!).

Step 3: Sizzle the Shrimp

  1. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
  2. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  3. Toss in shrimp, sprinkle with paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook 2-3 minutes per side until pink and juicy. Squeeze lemon juice over the top.

Step 4: Make the Mushrooms Magic

  1. Wipe out the skillet (or not—it’s extra flavor). Add butter and melt.
  2. Throw in mushrooms, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until golden and tender.

Step 5: Plate It Like a Boss

  • Place the steak on a plate, top with shrimp, and spoon the garlicky mushrooms on the side. Drizzle any extra butter from the pan over everything.


Pro Tips:

  • Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted veggies, or crusty bread to soak up all that buttery goodness.
  • Want extra sauce? Mix butter, garlic, and a splash of cream in the pan for a quick drizzle.

Boom! There you have it—Garlic Mushroom Surf and Turf Filet that looks like you know what you’re doing in the kitchen. Try it out, impress everyone, and let me know how it turned out in the comments!
