Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the olive oil over the steak and season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a cast iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until it's very hot.

    Sear the Steak

    Place the filet mignon in the hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes on one side without moving it.

    Flip and Add Aromatics

    Flip the steak using tongs. Add the garlic cloves, fresh rosemary, and butter to the pan. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes for medium-rare.
