  • Green Olive Caper Compound Butter
  • 1 bunch asparagus, rinsed, stem ends trimmed
  • 1 egg per person
Green Olive Caper Compound Butter:

  • 1 T capers, drained
  • 1/4 C flat leaf parsley, stemmed and chopped
  • 1 t Dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove, mashed

  1. Compound Butter: Place all compound butter ingredients in the bowl of a mini food processor and pulse until well combined.
  2. Using a small spatula, remove the blended butter to a piece of parchment or plastic wrap.
  3. Form the butter in to a small log and roll the parchment or plastic wrap around it, twisting the ends to seal. Chill butter for at least an hour.
  4. Butter can be made up to 2 days in advance, leftovers will keep in the freezer for up to 8 weeks.
  5. Asparagus: Bring a pan of water to a simmer over high heat and add 1/2 t salt. Have a bowl if ice water, large enough to hold the asparagus, ready. Blanch asparagus, turn off the heat, and cook for 2 minutes. Remove asparagus with tongs, and place in the ice water. Remove to a paper towel lined plate and set aside.
  6. Filet Mignon: Remove butter from refrigerator and slice 2 pieces per steak, set aside.

  9. Remove pan from heat, add the blanched asparagus to the pan and cover loosely with foil while you make the poached eggs.
