3. Season the Filet Mignon
Pat the filet mignon pieces dry with paper towels. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper on both sides.
4. Sear the Steaks
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned filet mignon and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness.
5. Add Aromatics
During the last minute of cooking, add the crushed garlic cloves and sprigs of fresh rosemary to the skillet. Baste the steaks with the melted butter and aromatics.
6. Rest and Serve
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
