Instructions

1. 1

   Gather the ingredients.

2. 2

   Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Sprinkle the filets with salt and pepper.

3. 3

   Melt 1/4 cup of butter in a small saucepan over low heat; gently stir in crab meat and simmer while you broil the beef filets.

4. 4

   Broil steaks until they reach the desired stage of doneness; for medium (slightly pink in the center), broil 10 to 12 minutes on the first side and 6 minutes on the second side. Set steaks aside to rest.

5. 5

   Place a steamer insert into a skillet, and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Cover, and bring the water to a boil over high heat. Add asparagus, recover, and steam until just tender, 2 to 6 minutes depending on thickness.

6. 6

   Whisk Bearnaise sauce mix with milk in a saucepan. Add 1/2 cup of butter, and bring the sauce to a boil over medium heat, whisking constantly; reduce heat to a simmer, and whisk until sauce has thickened, about 1 minute.

7. 7

   To assemble, top each broiled steak filet with crab meat, then half of the asparagus. Spoon Bearnaise sauce to taste over asparagus and serve.
