1
Prepare Garlic Confit
In a small saucepan, combine the garlic cloves and olive oil. Simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes, until the garlic is soft and fragrant. Remove from heat and let cool.
2
Make Port Demi
In a separate saucepan, combine the port wine and beef stock. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until reduced to a thick sauce, about 15-20 minutes. Stir in the fresh thyme and season with salt and pepper.
3
Cook Filet Mignon
Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the filet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for a few minutes.
4
Plate the Dish
Place the filet mignon on a plate, top with garlic confit, and drizzle the port demi over the top. Serve hot.
