Ingredients
- STEAK:
- 12 ounces filet mignon, center cut at room temp
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- CHIPOTLE SAUCE:
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- juice of 1 lime
- 1/2 to 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 2 to 3 tablespoons adobo paste
- GARLIC AND HERB SPREAD:
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons garlic finely minced
- 1 tablespoon parmesan grated
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- TOPPINGS:
- sliced sourdough large pieces, according to taste
- tomatoes sliced, according to taste
- lettuce, according to taste
- avocado sliced, according to taste
- grated parmesan, according to taste
- chopped parsley, according to taste
- beef bacon, according to taste
Method
- Stir the chipotle sauce ingredients — mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, honey, black pepper, chili powder and adobo paste — together in a small bowl and set it aside.
- Mix the garlic and herb spread from the mayonnaise, parsley, garlic, Parmesan, black pepper and oregano, and set that aside too.
- Pat the filet dry, season all sides with salt and black pepper, and sear it in vegetable oil in a very hot cast-iron skillet for 2 to 3 minutes a side until a crust forms.
- Drop the heat to medium-low, add the butter, and baste the steak for another 2 to 3 minutes for medium rare, cooking longer if you prefer it more done. Rest it, covered with foil, for 10 minutes, then slice it.
- Broil the sourdough with the garlic-herb spread on one side until golden, watching it closely so it does not burn.
- Build each sandwich with chipotle sauce, lettuce, tomato, avocado, the sliced steak, another drizzle of chipotle sauce, Parmesan, parsley and beef bacon, then press, halve and serve.
