We all know how special an indulgence a steak meal can be. Specifically, the tender filet mignon, a cut of beef that melts in your mouth. The filet gets an assist from a rich, buttery demi-glace sauce that'll have you licking your plate clean. Rounding out this meal is a delectable Gouda gratin and hearty green beans. Indulge away, as if every day was a special day. Tip: Line 'em up! The best way to remove the ends of green beans is to line them up evenly, then remove them with one cut.

While potatoes cook, trim and thinly slice green onions on an angle, keeping white and green portions separate.Tear Gouda into small pieces.Trim ends off green beans.Pat steaks dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. -

For best results, use a 2-cup casserole dish. Place on prepared baking sheet to catch any drips. Top with remaining Gouda and bake in hot oven until cheese browns, 15-18 minutes.While gratin bakes, cook steaks. -
3 Cook the Steaks
