Filet Mignon

Method

Preparing the Filet Mignon

  1. 1

    Season the Steak

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over both sides of the 8 oz filet mignon.

  2. 2

    Sear the Steak

    In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the filet mignon and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Preparing the Crab Meat

  1. 4

    Mix the Crab Meat

    In a bowl, gently mix the lump crab meat with 1 teaspoon of Old Bay seasoning. Be careful not to break up the crab lumps.

Making the Lemon Butter Sauce

  1. 5

    Melt the Butter

    In the same skillet used for the steak, lower the heat to medium. Add 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter and allow to melt.

  2. 6

    Add Garlic and Lemon Juice

    Once the butter is melted, add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Then, add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and stir to combine.

  3. 7

    Finish the Sauce

    Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Place the rested filet mignon on a plate, top it with the seasoned crab meat, and drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the top.
