1
Prepare the Steak
Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
2
Season the Steak
Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Rub both sides with olive oil, then season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
3
Preheat the Pan
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan over high heat until it's smoking hot.
4
Sear the Steak
Place the filet mignon in the hot skillet. Sear for 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it, until a crust forms.
5
Flip and Add Herbs
Flip the steak over and add the butter and fresh rosemary to the skillet. Cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, spooning the melted butter over the steak.
6
Rest the Steak
Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
7
Serve
Slice the filet mignon and serve with your choice of sides.
