List of Ingredients




Four Rib Eye steaks, size optional, with or without bone
6 ounces butter, for paste, and, for searing
6 ounces blue cheese
1-1⁄2 cups fresh breadcrumbs, dry can be substituted
1-1⁄2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, variety of thyme is optional
Sea salt to taste
Black pepper to taste


Recipe



Combine the cheese, first butter, bread crumbs and thyme in a food processor. Process until a smooth paste is formed. The paste may be refrigerated and warmed to room temperature later or used immediately.

Season each filet well with freshly ground black pepper. Sear each face of the filet mignons in hot butter. Use a thick bottomed well heated skillet and lots of butter for best results. Once the filets are seared rest fillets on a roasting rack. Season them with salt.

Divide the crust evenly between the filets and pat it onto the top face of each steak forming a thick topping.

Bake the steaks at 400F degrees until the crust browns and the meat reaches the desired doneness. Times will vary based on the oven and meat, 15 minutes is average. Serve the meat immediately out of the oven.

Serves 4
