Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filet

    Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps in even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Pat the filet dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    In a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it starts to shimmer.

  4. 4

    Sear the Filet

    Add the seasoned filet mignon to the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a nice crust forms.

  5. 5

    Flip and Cook

    Flip the filet and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached.

  6. 6

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes before slicing.
