Filet Mignon Ingredients
Method
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Steaks
Take the filet mignon steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook evenly.

Season the Steaks
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper.
- 3
Sear the Steaks
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steaks to the skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

Rest the Steaks
