Filet Mignon Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

2. 2

   Sear the Steak

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the filet mignon and sear for 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it. This will create a nice crust.

3. 3

   Flip and Add Flavor

   Flip the steak and add minced garlic and rosemary to the pan. Sear for another 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer if desired.

4. 4

   Rest the Steak

   Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

5. 5

   Serve

   Slice the filet mignon and serve immediately. Enjoy your perfectly cooked steak!
