Filet Mignon
Filet Mignon is a melt in your mouth cut of beef seasoned with just a little bit of salt and black pepper! It's quickly seared, then baked in the oven.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 2 beef tenderloin , filet mignon steaks, (~8 ounces each)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper coarse ground
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Add butter to a small cast-iron skillet (just bigger than your steaks) on high heat.
- Season steaks all over with salt and pepper
- Sear the steaks on each side for 3 minutes until browned, then place in the oven for 4 minutes (for rare, 5-6 for medium or more for well done).
- Remove from the oven and remove steaks from the pan to a plate you cover with foil to let steaks rest for 10 minutes.
