Beef Wellington with Foie Gras and Duxelle

Get ready to dazzle you date with your culinary skills. Some dishes are pure classics when it comes to romantic meals for two: Oysters Rockerfeller, Clams Casino, Lobster Thermidor, and Steak Au Poivre. We’ve whipped up a special dish to inspire your Valentine’s Day Seduction Meal, and it is a classic every steak lover should try. Named after the Duke of Ellington, Beef Wellington is a dish that was extremely popular in the 1960′s. For our version we’ve made individual servings using filet mignon topped with foie gras slices (instead of pate), and Duxelles, a finely chopped mixture of mushrooms, shallots, garlic sautéed in butter. If you are cooking for a group, you would use a whole tenderloin that is wrapped and baked, and then sliced for individual servings.
