Filet Recipe

Marinate the Filet

In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Place the filet mignon pieces in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over the meat. Ensure the filets are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for enhanced flavor.

Cook the Filet

Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the filets from the marinade and allow excess marinade to drip off. Place the filets on the grill or skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer depending on your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check for internal temperature (130°F for medium-rare).

Prepare Sauce (Optional)

In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the red wine and beef broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Cook for about 10 minutes, or until the sauce reduces and slightly thickens. Drizzle over the cooked filets before serving.

Plate and Serve

Remove the filets from the grill or skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve the filets warm, drizzled with the sauce if desired, and enjoy with your favorite side dishes.
