Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinade the Filets

    In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

  2. 2

    Coat the Filets

    Rub the marinade mixture all over the filet mignon pieces and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Skillet

    Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it is hot.

  2. 4

    Sear the Filets

    Add the marinated filets to the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time for your desired doneness.

  3. 5

    Add Butter

    In the last minute of cooking, add butter to the skillet and spoon the melted butter over the filets for added flavor.

Serving

  1. 6

    Rest the Filets

    Remove the filets from the skillet and let them rest for about 5 minutes.

  2. 7

    Plate and Garnish

    Serve the filets with a slice of lemon and a sprinkle of fresh parsley on top.
