Queen Size Filet Mignon (6 Oz.) Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   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 helps to ensure even cooking.

2. 2

   Season the Steak

   Rub the filet with olive oil, then season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides. Press the seasoning into the meat gently.

3. 3

   Heat the Pan

   In a large skillet, heat a medium-high flame and add the butter. Once the butter is melted and begins to foam, it's ready for the steak.

4. 4

   Sear the Steak

   Place the filet mignon in the hot skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Avoid moving the steak around to ensure a good crust forms.

5. 5

   Flip and Finish Cooking

   Carefully flip the steak using tongs, and add the fresh rosemary to the pan. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or longer depending on your preferred doneness.

6. 6

   Rest the Steak

   Once cooked to your liking, remove the filet mignon from the skillet and place it on a cutting board. Let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute.

7. 7

   Serve

   Slice and serve the filet mignon with your choice of sides, drizzled with any pan juices from the skillet.
