1
Prepare the Steak
Take the filet of beef out of the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.
2
Season the Steak
Rub the steak with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper. If using, sprinkle fresh rosemary on top.
3
Sear the Steak
Preheat a skillet or grill over high heat. Once hot, add the filet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a nice crust forms.
4
Finish Cooking
Flip the steak and add butter to the skillet. Cook for another 4-5 minutes or until it reaches your desired doneness (about 130°F for medium-rare).
5
Rest the Steak
Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
6
Serve
Slice the filet against the grain and serve hot. Enjoy your perfectly cooked filet of beef!
