Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Meat

    Pat the petit filets dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

  2. 2

    Heat the Pan

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sear the Filets

    Once the oil is hot, carefully place the seasoned petit filets into the skillet. Sear for 3-4 minutes on one side until a golden brown crust forms.

  2. 4

    Flip the Filets

    Turn the filets over and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium-rare. If desired, add butter and rosemary to the pan during the last minute of cooking for added flavor.

Resting

  1. 5

    Rest the Meat

    Remove the filets from the skillet and place them on a cutting board. Tent with foil and let them rest for about 5 minutes.

Serving

  1. 6

    Serve the Filets

    Slice the petit filets against the grain and serve them garnished with fresh rosemary and a drizzle of the pan juices.
