  1. 1

    Prepare the Filet

    Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

    Season the Steak

    Rub the filet with olive oil and season generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

    Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the filet mignon and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

    During the last minute of cooking, add the fresh rosemary to the skillet for added flavor.

  5. 5
