Fern Avenue Filet Recipe

Preparation and Cooking

1. 1

   Make the Herb Compound Butter

   In a bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, chopped parsley, chives, thyme, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended. Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap, shape into a log, and refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Cook the Filet Mignon

   Preheat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Season the filet mignon with salt and black pepper on both sides. Add a little oil to the skillet or grill. Cook the filet for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

3. 3

   Serve

   Remove the filet from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes. Top with a slice of the herb compound butter before serving. Pair with your choice of two sides.
