Shrimp and Filet Mignon Recipe

Ingredients:

• 6g green tea bbq seasonings
• 2 filet mignon steaks (6-8 oz each)
• 8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for a bit of heat)

Instructions:

Prepare the Filet Mignon:

• Season the filet mignon steaks generously with the 6g of green tea bbq seasonings, salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Let the steaks sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to absorb the seasoning.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the filet mignon steaks into the skillet. Sear the steaks for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare or longer if desired (adjust cooking time to your preferred level of doneness).
• Once cooked, remove the steaks from the skillet and set them aside to rest for about 5 minutes, allowing the juices to redistribute.

Prepare the Shrimp:

• While the steaks are resting, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the same skillet. Reduce the heat to medium.
• Add the shrimp to the pan, followed by minced garlic. Sauté the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until they turn pink and opaque.
• Add the butter, lemon juice, soy sauce, and smoked paprika to the pan. Stir to coat the shrimp evenly in the sauce. Let the shrimp cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) for a bit of heat.

Combine the Shrimp and Steaks:

• Once the shrimp is cooked, arrange the rested filet mignon steaks on plates.
• Spoon the shrimp and the flavorful garlic sauce from the pan on top of each steak, ensuring the shrimp is well-distributed.

Garnish and Serve:

• Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley to add a burst of color and a hint of freshness.
