Method

Cooking the Filet Mignon

  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. This helps the steak cook evenly.

  2. 2

    Season the Steak

    Rub the filet mignon with olive oil and season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over high heat for about 10-15 minutes until it is hot.

  4. 4

    Cook the Steak

    Place the seasoned filet mignon on the grill and cook for approximately 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust the cooking time according to your preferred doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Steak

    Once cooked to your liking, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Serving Options

  1. 6

    Choose Your Accompaniment

    While the steak is resting, prepare your choice of house salad, Caesar salad (add 2), or soup of the day. Serve alongside the filet mignon.

  2. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Place the filet mignon on a plate and add your chosen salad or soup. Enjoy your meal!
