Lamb Wellington

Ah yes, the lamb wellington.  I have to admit, I have a weakness for this.  I think about it all the time.  I can’t get enough of it.  Anyone who has the privilege of trying can’t quit talking about it.  I think you will as well.  A wellington refers to a tender cut of meat coated in a duxelles (mixture of herbs and mushrooms) and wrapped in a pastry.  Leg of lamb or a whole loin/backstrap are a wellington match made in heaven.  
This recipe came from recipes.co.nx and I know you are supposed to change recipes up and make them your own, but this was perfect!  
If you have guests to impress, look no further. This will knock their socks off. As good as it gets!
