<strong>The</strong> <strong>Don</strong>’s Steak Au Poivre<br />

INGREDIENTS<br />

Whole Beef Tenderloin<br />

2 Tbsp of DZ Seasoning<br />

1 Large Package of<br />

Portabella Mushrooms<br />

1 Bunch of Green Onions<br />

4 Cloves of Garlic<br />

1/2 Cube of Butter<br />

1/2 Bunch of Parsley<br />

1/2 Cup of White Wine<br />

1 Pint of Veal Demi Glaze<br />

3 Sweet Potatoes<br />

3 Yams<br />

1 Onion<br />

1/2 Cup Brown Sugar<br />

1 Tbsp of Cinnamon<br />

1/2 Cup Cubed Mango<br />

2 Small Cans of Cubed<br />

Pineapple<br />

Preparation<br />

Peel 3 sweet potatoes and 3 yams and cut<br />

them into 1 1/2 pieces.<br />

Put them in a baking dish and add the cubed<br />

mango, sliced pineapple, sliced onion, brown<br />

sugar, cinnamon, and 1/2 cup of melted<br />

butter.<br />

Place in the oven to bake for 30 to 40<br />

minutes on 350 degrees.<br />

Rub the whole tenderloin with olive oil and<br />

DZ Seasoning. Put it in the refrigerator one<br />

hour before cooking.<br />

Now take a fry pan and heat it up with a<br />

little olive oil. Place the steak in to sear it<br />

and brown on all sides. You are not cooking it<br />

just searing it.<br />

Now in a baking pan place the tenderloin and<br />

add ½ cup of white wine and place it in the<br />

oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes.<br />

Chop the green onions, cloves of garlic,<br />

parsley and put in the fry pan coated with a<br />

1/2 cube of butter. Sauté for a few<br />

minutes.<br />

Next add the large package of sliced<br />

mushrooms and a teaspoon of DZ Seasoning.<br />

Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes.<br />

Now add 1/2 cup of white wine. Sauté for a<br />

few minutes then add the Demi Glaze.<br />

Let simmer on low for 10 to 15 minutes. <strong>The</strong><br />

sauce will begin to thicken up. Take off the<br />

heat and take 1/2 cube of butter that has<br />

been cut into slices so it melts and mixes<br />

into the sauce.<br />

When everything is done, slice the tenderloin<br />

in thin pieces about 1/2 inch thick and fan<br />

them on a platter in a half circle layering them like dominoes. <strong>The</strong>n pour<br />

the sauce all over the steak. Garnish with chopped parsley. Place the<br />

sweet potatoes and yams in the center.<br />

BEAUTIFUL AND YUMMY!<br />
