1
Prepare the Steaks
Remove the filet mignon steaks from the refrigerator and let them rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking.
2
Season the Steaks
Pat the steaks dry with paper towels. Rub each steak with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
3
Sear the Steaks
Heat a skillet over high heat. Once hot, add the steaks to the skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adjusting time based on preferred doneness.
4
Add Flavor
In the last minute of cooking, add the butter, garlic cloves, and rosemary to the skillet. Spoon the melted butter over the steaks for added flavor.
5
Rest and Serve
Remove the steaks from the skillet and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps retain the juices.
