GRILLED FILET STEAK AND ARUGULA

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal grill with hot coals or turn a gas grill to medium-high heat.
• Meanwhile, pat dry the filets mignons with paper towels. Brush the filets lightly all over with the oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the filets on all sides in the mixture, pressing lightly to help the salt and pepper adhere. The steaks should be evenly coated with the fleur de sel and cracked pepper.
• Meanwhile, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, mustard, kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Set aside.
• When the grill is ready, place the steaks on the grill. Cook them for 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare or until the centers of the steaks register 125 degrees on an instant-read -thermometer. Remove to a plate, cover tightly with foil, and allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing thickly.
• Toss the arugula in a large bowl with enough of the dressing to moisten; divide among 4 plates. Place a steak on top of each salad. Shave the Parmesan onto each steak with a vegetable peeler, sprinkle with salt, and serve hot.

BROCCOLI AND BROCCOLI STEM SALAD

Steps:

• For the broccoli: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Cut the florets into small, fairly even-sized pieces. Trim off the hard bottom of the stems and peel the stems like carrots. Cut the peeled stems into about 1/2-inch rounds. You should have 8 to 9 cups loosely packed broccoli. Arrange the stems and florets in a single layer on the baking sheets, with all of the stems on one sheet. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until the broccoli florets and stems are tender and a little browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
• For the vinaigrette: In a large bowl, whisk together the mustard, oil, horseradish, lemon zest and juice and a pinch of sugar or honey. If the dressing is too thick, whisk in a splash of water. Add the tarragon.
• To serve: Toss the broccoli stems in the dressing to coat them fully. Add another pinch of sugar. Add the florets and gently toss to coat. Use scissors to cut the arugula into bite-size pieces into the bowl, add another drizzle of oil and gently toss again.
