Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Filets
Bring the filet mignon to room temperature by leaving them out for about 30 minutes. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Season the Filets
Rub the filets with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper on all sides.

Sear the Filets
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the filets and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms.

Add Aromatics
Add the garlic cloves, rosemary, and butter to the pan. As the butter melts, spoon it over the filets for added flavor.

Finish Cooking
Continue cooking the filets for another 2-3 minutes for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.

Rest the Filets
Remove the filets from the skillet and let them rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before serving.
