Cooking Instructions

  1. 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.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the olive oil over the filet mignon, then season generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat for about 5-10 minutes.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Place the filet mignon on the hot grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time according to your preferred doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the filet mignon and serve it with your choice of sides.
