Nothing hits the spot like a tender, medium rare steak when the mood hits you. This little filet mignon was seasoned simply with salt and pepper, seared on both sides in a skillet and cooked to a perfect medium rare in a 375 degree oven. I topped it with a blue cheese sauce made from crumbled blue cheese, sour cream, a touch of mayonnaise and salt and pepper.
The scalloped tomatoes was a dish I have made once before after seeing a version by Ina Garten, The Barefoot Contessa. One of my favorite side dishes, it is the perfect accompaniment with steak! The only thing that will make it better is when I can use sweet, plump summer tomatoes. Please take a look at my entry from March 11, 2010 for the recipe.
Love the idea of blue cheese with steak! Sometimes the beef will already have a blue cheese flavor to enhance. Yum.
