40 MINUTES

Arrow

1. Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes. Preheat the grill with a section for indirect medium heat and a section for direct medium heat.*

Instructions

1. Portion the filet mignon into four 6 ounce steaks. Season each steak with salt and pepper then rub with olive oil. Set aside.

Prep the Steaks

1.  Slice onions into three 1/2" - 3/4" thick slices, reserving the thinner end pieces for the sauce.

Prep the Onions

2. Skewer the onion slices using two parallel skewers to hold all the layers together. Make sure one skewer pierces the center section so that it doesn't fall out. Rub all slices with olive oil and salt to taste. Set aside.

Prep the Onions

1. Remove peach seed, remove seed and peel from the mango. Place mango and peach flesh along with remaining onion pieces into a large food processor or blender.

Prep the Sauce

3. Trim the ends off of 1/2 a bunch of cilantro, then add cilantro to the food processor along with the vinegar, salt, and pepper. 4. Blend on high until the sauce is bright green and resembles a pesto or chimichurri style sauce.

Prep the Sauce

1. Place the onions on the grill over direct medium heat. Place the steak on the grill over indirect medium heat.

2. Grill steak and onions for 7 minutes, then flip. Continue to cook the onion another 7 minutes - 10 minutes or until they are tender and golden brown.
