1
Prepare the Steak
Take the filet mignon out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps it cook more evenly.
2
Season the Steak
Pat the filet mignon dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to high heat, around 450°F to 500°F (232°C to 260°C).
4
Grill the Steak
Brush the grill grates with olive oil. Place the filet mignon on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches the desired doneness.
5
Rest the Steak
Once cooked, remove the filet mignon from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
