Filet Mignon Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Take the filet mignon out of the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the olive oil evenly over the steak. Season generously with kosher salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Heat the Pan

    Preheat a heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) over high heat until it's very hot.

  4. 4

    Sear the Steak

    Place the steak in the hot skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes without moving it, until a nice crust forms.

  5. 5

    Flip and Add Flavor

    Flip the steak and add butter, crushed garlic, and rosemary to the pan. Cook for another 4-5 minutes, spooning the melted butter over the steak.

  6. 6

    Check Doneness

    Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Cook until it reaches your desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare).

  7. 7

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing.

  8. 8

    Serve

    Slice the filet mignon and serve with your favorite sides.
