Easy Yet Romantic Filet Mignon

SUBMITTED BY: chef in the making  PHOTO BY: aly 

"This recipe is very simple and very delicious also. I can prepare it, and I am a 14 year old boy! This recipe only takes a few minutes to prepare and only bit longer in the broiler. This goes good with some mashed potatoes with butter and green beans with lemon squeezed on top. This is good trust me!"
