Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Surf and Turf with Shrimp and Filet Mignon.
Step 1
Start by creating a flavorful marinade for your shrimp.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine one tablespoon of olive oil, melted butter, minced onion, a splash of white wine, Worcestershire sauce, fresh lemon juice, dried parsley, seafood seasoning, minced garlic, and a dash of black pepper.
Step 3
Once everything is well mixed, add the shrimp and gently toss them until they are evenly coated in the marinade.
Step 4
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
Step 5
This step is crucial as it allows the flavors to blend beautifully, enhancing the taste of the shrimp.
Step 6
While the shrimp is marinating, preheat your outdoor grill to medium-high heat.
Step 7
To ensure your food doesn’t stick, lightly oil the grill grate.
Step 8
Next, prepare your filet mignon steaks.
Step 9
Drizzle two teaspoons of olive oil over each steak and generously sprinkle steak seasoning on both sides.
Step 10
This simple step will elevate the flavor of the meat, making it even more delicious.
Step 11
Once your grill is ready, place the seasoned steaks on the hot grate.
Step 12
Grill them for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side.
Step 13
You’re aiming for a firm texture with a hint of pink in the center for that perfect medium doneness.
Step 14
If you have an instant-read thermometer handy, it should read 140°F (60°C) when they’re just right.
Step 15
After grilling, transfer the steaks to a platter and loosely cover them with aluminum foil to keep them warm while you finish the shrimp.
Step 16
Now, it’s time to grill the shrimp.
Step 17
Remove them from the marinade and place them on the grill.
Step 18
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, watching closely until they turn a vibrant pink and the meat becomes opaque.
Step 19
This quick grilling will lock in the flavors and give you that delightful char.
Step 20
Once everything is cooked to perfection, serve your juicy filet mignon alongside the succulent grilled shrimp.
Step 21
Enjoy the delicious combination of flavors and the satisfaction of a meal well made!.
