September Memorable Meal

I love the thrill of discovering new flavor combinations. I enjoy trying different dishes that reveal unique tastes and textures. Sometimes that means beef, sometimes lamb. Then there are those times when a beautiful piece of seared fish seems just right. I admit it, sometimes I really want it all.

And that’s why I’ve created this Memorable Meal for our September Month of Discovery. I’ve put three of Fleming’s classic entrées together on one plate, so you can explore a variety of tastes in one evening. The entrée trio includes Filet Mignon, Seared Ahi Tuna and New Zealand Lamb Chop, each presented on a bed of parmesan mashed potatoes. I let the quality of the filet speak for itself, with simple seasoning and a drizzle of peppercorn sauce. The seared ahi tuna is crusted with a combination of freshly cracked pepper and poppy seeds, and topped off with a zesty, fresh tomato vinaigrette. The lamb chop is marinated in fresh herbs and garlic, then I’ve cranked up the flavors even more with the addition of Madeira sauce.

As a prelude to the entrée trio, we’re serving a salad that’s a taste experience in itself. Warm, grilled peaches, combined with the tang of goat cheese and the crunchy texture of caramelized walnuts with a spring mix of fresh greens, tossed with a lemon vinaigrette that’s made to really bring out the full flavor of the peaches.
