Filet Mignon

Well, well, well, I’ve deserted you.  I’m so sorry about the not having any new posts lately. It’s terrible. The way I’m so busy I mean. I even missed cooking. But I think I’m getting back to it. Anyways, so, I made like the best meat ever. The really expensive kind (that I got for cheap and Trader Joes!!), that’s super tender and juicy, and delicious.  Also very easy to make! Let me tell you how this wonderful meatiness was prepared!

I started by heating up some oil in a non-stick pan. And then as that was heating, I seasoned my meat. I used salt and pepper of course. Then I added a little bit of Jamaican Jerk rub. (Pampered Chef seasonings) And I used a little Bouquet Garni. That’s a special seasoning that is used for maybe a pork roast, or different kinds of meat. So those two tasted REALLY good together. I know, weird, but I like to experiment. If you put a little bit of the nice, elegant, normal stuff, it’s sometimes nice to add a little bit of flavor. Something tangy, or sweet. The jerk rub was tangy. But I didn’t put a lot. Then that would over power everything else. So anyway, that was all seasoned up and ready for the hot pan. I put it in and the second I did, I heard the most beautiful sizzle. It was like, like, well, like a filet mignon on a skillet!!!! Haha! But it did sound really good! Then I just cooked it from there. It might have taken about oh, lets say 30 minutes total. So it didn’t take long at all! Yay! And then when it was done, it was nice and  juicy and amazingly delicious! It was very small though, because we couldn’t afford ANYTHING else bigger. I don’t know who can afford and expensive slab of meat like that. But it was good, and we still have some left over! I was surprised! But it was the greatest! I have never made anything like that before. That’s actually, you know, meat. I have made a pasta that is completely out of this world, but you get the point! Anyway, hope you enjoy the post, and I really am sorry I haven’t gotten to write anything for a while. I will get started again, and then hopefully finish up this cookbook!!!!
