Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine 1 cup olive oil, dry vermouth, minced garlic, and Creole seasoning in a large shallow dish.
  2. Add the filet mignon steaks and drained oysters to the marinade, ensuring they are submerged. Let stand for 20 minutes, turning the steaks occasionally.
  3. In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, prepared horseradish, Creole mustard, chili sauce, sliced green onions, and minced parsley. Stir until smooth and set aside.
  4. Remove steaks from the marinade and pat dry with paper towels. Reserve the marinade and oysters.
  5. Heat the remaining 1/2 cup olive oil in a heavy skillet over high heat.
  6. Sear the steaks for 3 minutes on each side, or until medium-rare. Remove from skillet and let rest.
  7. In the same skillet, pour in the reserved marinade with the oysters. Cook over medium heat for 6 minutes, or until the edges of the oysters curl.
  8. Warm the spinach leaves briefly in the skillet or microwave until just wilted but still crisp.
  9. Arrange the spinach on 6 heated serving plates.
  10. Place the cooked steaks and poached oysters next to the spinach on the plates.
  11. Spoon the horseradish cream sauce beside the steaks and oysters.
  12. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately.
