Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Wagyu

    Sprinkle sea salt and black pepper evenly over both sides of the Wagyu tenderloin. Let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to flavor and tenderize.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sear the Tenderloin

    Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the Wagyu tenderloin to the skillet. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time based on your preferred doneness.

  2. 3

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the tenderloin from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve as is or with your choice of sides.
