Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse Shares Their Recipe for Filet Mignon Benedict

I have a tough time keeping up with the national holidays. One that that I overlooked was National Filet Mignon Day! Perhaps it was because I didn’t see that card at my local Hallmark store. In honor of the holiday, Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar, decided to share their recipe for Filet Mignon Benedict.

Filet Mignon Benedict

Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:

4 Buttermilk biscuits, split
3 tbsp. Butter
1 each Hash brown
8 tbsp. Tomato concassé room temp.
2 slices Filet Mignon*, 1 ½ oz each: ¼” – 3/8” wide slices*
8 each Poached eggs
8 oz. Béarnaise Sauce
½ tsp. Chopped Parsley

Bryan’s note: Tomato concassé is a fancy way of saying chopped tomatoes, peeled and seeded. Here’s an easy way to do this.

*See recipe below

Preparation:

Split the buttermilk biscuit with a fork then spread with the butter. Place on a half sheet pan and back in a 350 ̊ oven for 6-7 minutes to a golden brown and just soft in the center. Reserve the center, reserve.
Prepare the hash browns according to the recipe, reserve warm.
Prepare your own tomato concassé then spread 1 tbsp. of the room temperature concassé over each muffin.
Set the split biscuit on the 4 plates then place 1 tbsp. of tomato concassé on top of each half. Slice the whole tenderloin into ¼” – 3/8” wide portions then place 1 slice on top of the concassé on each biscuit.
Prepare the poached eggs then place 1 on top of each slice of meat. Ladle 1 oz. of béarnaise sauce over each egg. Set the hash browns on the plate. Garnish with chopped parsley.
