Filet Mignon with Creamy Blue Cheese Shallot Sauce is on the menu this Valentine’s Day. It’s always a hit and can be made it no time. It’s a quick, simple recipe and it will impress anyone you make it for.

Do you typically go out for Valentine’s Day or stay home? I must admit that 99% of the time, we stay home. When I first created this recipe I was pregnant with my son, Jack. When I was pregnant I had Gestational Diabetes and was put on a strict diet. This was a meal that was not only delicious, but worked with my Gestational Diabetes diet. My sugar levels didn’t spike and I didn’t want to pass out after I ate it.

My recipes are usually 4 servings but you can always cut this one in half for the two of you on Valentine’s Day. I’m using filet mignon but you can use any cut of steak. Seriously, I would eat this Creamy blue cheese shallot sauce off of a tire.

Step 1: Prepare your ingredients. Bring your stick of butter and filet mignon to room temperature or 20-30 minutes before you begin cooking.

How To Make The Blue Cheese Shallot Sauce

Melt a 1/2 stick of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, dried herbs, salt and pepper and sherry. Stir together. Then, you will turn off the burner and add the blue cheese. Stir until melted.

How divine does that sauce look? It’s the perfect Keto dinner. Serve this with asparagus because that is what we had in the refrigerator, but this would also go really well with garlic cauliflower mashed or grilled zucchini as well.

#AD It's no secret that I love using @chobani Gree #AD It's no secret that I love using @chobani Greek Yogurt for numerous recipes on my blog. One of my all-time favorite recipes is this greek chicken! It's so easy to whip up, and Chobani® Greek Yogurt is the star of the dish. I like to use their plain yogurt to make the chicken marinade and also in my simple tzatziki sauce. Did you know that you can now earn on Ibotta with your purchase of Chobani® Greek Yogurt? Find it at @walmart!

Recipe:
Greek Chicken
Servings: 4
Ingredients
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup Chobani® Non-Fat Plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp fresh or dried dill
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

Instructions:
In a large bowl, add minced garlic, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, Chobani® Greek Yogurt, dill, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until combined.
Add chicken and coat well. Let the chicken marinade for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Remove most of the marinade from the chicken before adding it to the skillet, or else it will burn.
Add chicken in an even layer to the skillet, leave some space between the chicken pieces so they'll brown rather than steam. You may need to work in batches depending on how big your skillet is.
Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes and then flip the chicken and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until cooked through (165°F).
Remove chicken to a plate to rest.
Serve chicken over rice with a dollop (or two) of tzatziki sauce, diced red onion, fresh dill, and a lemon wedge.
