Filet with Red Chile Rum Sauce

I know I'm a bit behind, so I'm going to try and hit a few of the highlights of the past few weeks.  This is one my fiance loved.  Grilled filet mignon served with red chile rum sauce, plus it was simple and looked really good on the plate.

This dish started with the base of the chile sauce.  Ancho chiles that were rehydrated in some hot water, cilantro and onions.

The rest of the ingredients for the sauce.  Molasses, chicken broth, rum, garlic and butter.

The butter was melted in a pan and then the garlic and onions were sauteed off and then the pan deglazed with the broth and rum until it was reduced to the appropriate level.

Look at those steaks.  Nothing complicated about seasoning these, salt, pepper and olive oil.

Simple plating too.  This dish was absolutely amazing.
