Ingredients

• 4 steaks (6 ounces each) Filet mignon
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary
• 2 sprigs Fresh thyme
• 1 tablespoon (chopped) Parsley
• 1 teaspoon Lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. This ensures even cooking.

Step 2

Season each steak generously on all sides with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 4

In an oven-safe skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Place the steaks in the hot skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms.

Step 6

Add the unsalted butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Tilt the pan slightly and spoon the melted butter and aromatics over the steaks for 1-2 minutes.

Step 7

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Cook the steaks in the oven for 5-7 minutes for medium-rare, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F (57°C). Adjust cook time slightly depending on desired doneness.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the steaks to a plate. Tent them with foil and let them rest for 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.

Step 9

Meanwhile, mix the chopped parsley and lemon zest in a small bowl for garnish.

Step 10

Serve the filet mignon hot, topped with a spoonful of the infused butter and aromatics from the skillet. Garnish with the parsley-lemon zest mixture and enjoy!
