Filet Mignon Ingredients
Method
Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Steak
Take the filet mignon out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures even cooking.
Preheat the Pan
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy frying pan over medium-high heat until it's very hot.
Sear the Steak
Place the filet mignon in the hot skillet. Sear for 4-5 minutes on one side until a crust forms, then flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes for medium rare (adjust time for desired doneness).
