Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Filet Mignon

    Take the filet mignon out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Seasoning

    Rub the steak with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Searing the Steak

    Heat a skillet over high heat until it's very hot. Add the steak to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, depending on thickness.

  4. 4

    Adding Flavor

    During the last minute of cooking, add crushed garlic, fresh rosemary, and butter to the skillet. Spoon the butter over the steak as it finishes cooking.

  5. 5

    Resting the Steak

    Remove the steak from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Tent with foil and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.

  6. 6

    Serving

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