1
Prepare the Steaks
Take the filet mignon steaks out of the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This ensures even cooking.
2
Season the Steaks
Rub the steaks with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
3
Sear the Steaks
Heat a skillet over high heat. Once hot, add the steaks and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
4
Add Flavor
In the last minute of cooking, add butter, rosemary, and crushed garlic to the skillet. Baste the steaks with the melted butter and herbs.
5
Rest the Steaks
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
6
Prepare Seasonal Vegetables
While the steaks are resting, sauté seasonal vegetables in the same skillet for about 5 minutes until tender. Drizzle with balsamic glaze.
7
Serve
Plate the filet mignon with the sautéed seasonal vegetables. Drizzle any remaining pan juices over the steak and enjoy!
