Wagyu Filet Ingredients
Method
Cooking Directions
- 1
Preparation
Bring the Wagyu filet mignon to room temperature by leaving it out for about 30 minutes before cooking.
- 2
Seasoning
Generously season both sides of the filet mignon with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- 3
Searing
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the filet mignon to the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting the time based on your desired doneness.
- 4
Basting
During the last minute of cooking, add the butter, rosemary, and garlic cloves to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the filet while it finishes cooking.
- 5
Resting
Remove the filet from the skillet and let it rest for about 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
- 6
Serving
Slice the filet and serve immediately, drizzled with the buttery pan sauce and garnished with the fresh rosemary.
