1
Prepare the Filet Tenderloin
Take the filet tenderloin pieces out of the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
2
Season the Meat
Pat the filet tenderloins dry with paper towels. Rub each piece with olive oil and season generously with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary.

3
Preheat the Pan
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Allow it to get hot for about 5 minutes.
4
Sear the Tenderloin
Add the seasoned filet tenderloins to the hot skillet. Sear for about 4-5 minutes on one side until a golden crust forms.
5
Flip and Cook
Carefully flip the filet tenderloins using tongs. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached.
6
Rest the Meat
Remove the filet tenderloins from the skillet and transfer them to a plate. Cover loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.

7
Prepare Asparagus
While the meat is resting, prepare asparagus by trimming the ends. Heat a little olive oil in the same skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until tender.
8
Bake Potatoes
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap baked potatoes in foil and place them directly on the oven rack. Bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.

9
Plate and Serve
Slice the filet tenderloins and serve on plates with the sautéed asparagus and baked potatoes on the side. Enjoy your gourmet meal!
