Notes

For the best results, let the steaks rest after cooking to ensure juiciness. You can substitute filet mignon with ribeye or sirloin and shrimp with scallops or lobster tails. Store leftovers separately in airtight containers; steaks and shrimp can last up to 2 days, and the sauce for up to 3 days. Reheat gently for the best texture. Enjoy this impressive dish for any special occasion!
