Truffle Honey Filet Steak
with Yam & Asparagus
|
Truffle Honey
Filet of Beef
Mouth Watering and Delicious!
Ingredients:
8oz Filet of Beef or 12oz New York Cut
Wild Forest Truffle Sea Salt (Black or White)
Wild Forest White Truffle Honey
Pinch of Black Pepper, Garlic Powder, Chopped Dried Onions
Great with BBQ grills, but also great with indoor grills and broiling.
Place steak on a plate and rub the garlic, onion and pepper mix onto the meat on both sides well. You can (optional) use some olive oil or butter as a base for the rub.
When your satisfied with the rub (don't over do it, just a little for flavor) on the meat, place the meat on the grill (or the indoor grill or broiler) and cook to your liking.
When the meat is ready remove from grill and add a touch (small pinch) of the Wild Forest Truffle Sea Salt (black or white) over each side of the steak and let melt into the still hot meat.
As an option you can spread a fine thin coat of the Wild Forest Truffle Honey on the steak and let it melt into the meat. The White Truffle Honey can be used as a great dipping sauce instead of steak sauce.
Serve with baked potato or garlic or truffle mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, or what ever makes your mouth water!

Truffle Honey Chicken with
Onions & Mushrooms
|
White Truffle Honey
Chicken & Onions
A Simple but Delicious Meal
Ingredients:
1-2 chicken breast (Skinless) (without bone)
1 large sized Onion (halved and sliced)
8 large mushrooms (quartered)
2 clove of chopped garlic (or garlic powder)
Black Pepper (fresh best)
Wild Forest Truffle Sea Salt
MarDona Garlic Olive Oil Spray
Wild Forest White Truffle Honey
(Double the amounts for 4 breast)
Wash chicken and put to side.
Cut onion in half and into slices, cut mushrooms into 4 quarters, course chops the garlic (or use garlic powder) and set onion, garlic and mushrooms aside.
Place the 1-2 chicken breasts onto a plate (or flat surface), rub/spray olive oil on both sides well, and add mixture of garlic powder, black pepper and salt. Place to the side.
In a frying pan (non-stick preferably) add/spray some MarDona Garlic Olive Oil and when heated add onions, and begin to sauté them. As they become softer, add the mushrooms and begin to caramelize the mixture. Just as they are ready to remove from the heat, (mushrooms and onions should be a nice light brown color and the onions should be soft) add 1-2 tablespoons of the White Truffle Honey into the mix and stir well mixing the onions & mushrooms, and put the mixture aside for a minute.
In the same pan, spray some MarDona Garlic Olive Oil to coat the pan then add the chicken breast (already seasons on both sides), cook well to your taste (make sure chicken is fully cooked). Just about the time your ready to remove the chicken spread a fine coat of the White Truffle Honey over the chicken breast and let it melt into the chicken allowing it make a coat. Place the chicken on to a dish and then spread a coat of the onion and mushrooms mix over the chicken so it stays warm and keeps the honey truffle flavor locked in.
Serve over mashed potatoes and a side vegetable such as steamed asparagus with butter & garlic melting on them.
Oh by the way..... leave some honey out to use as a dipping sauce for the chicken and potatoes.
