Valentine's Day-Individual Beef Wellingtons

These little Beef Wellingtons look like you worked really hard.  Let your honey think that you did! While these are baking you can cook the vegetables.
Pre heat oven to 350 degrees.

2 3-ounce Fillet Mignon
2 individual Puff Pastry Shells, thawed. These come 6 to a package so freeze the rest for later
Cracked Pepper
Salt

In a skillet, heat 2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil over medium heat, I used Sepay Groves because it is sooo goood. Using a pepper mill, crack fresh pepper over fillets and sprinkle with salt. Sear the fillets lightly on all sides.  Set aside to cool.
Oil 2 pieces of wax paper and place 1 thawed puff pastry shell between the wax paper and roll out very thin, about 8 inches.  Place a cooled fillet in the middle of the pastry. Wrap the pastry around the fillet and seal. Place sealed side down in an oiled oven proof dish.  Repeat.  Prick the dough and place in the pre heated oven. Bake until pastry is browned, 25 to 30 minutes.  Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Enjoy this beautiful meal with your Honey!
