Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and allow it to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the steak with olive oil, then season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Sear the Steak

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Place the steak in the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting cooking time for desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Add Butter and Herbs

    In the last minute of cooking, add butter and fresh rosemary to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the steak as it finishes cooking.

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the filet mignon from the skillet and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve with your favorite sides.
