Filet Mignon

Method

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 before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the steak with olive oil, then season both sides generously with salt and black pepper. If desired, sprinkle fresh rosemary on top.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill or Pan

    Preheat a grill or a heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Place the filet on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare. Adjust time for desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the steak and serve with choice of two sides.
