Easy Skillet Filet Mignon

Easy Skillet Filet Mignon

When I heard the words ‘filet mignon,’ I admit I was a bit daunted. After all, filet mignon is renowned as a delicacy and all I had was a cast iron skillet. In all honesty though, cooking a filet mignon was not as difficult as I thought it would be. In about ten minutes I had a perfectly cooked steak for dinner. For all you mamas out there who want to serve up a very special dinner for your loved ones, here is a quick, easy, and tasty way to do that! Easy Skillet Filet Mignon: (2) 6 to 8 oz filets (let them sit out at room temp for about 30 minutes - this will help make sure the steaks cook evenly) 2 Tbsp. butter or tallow (butter can burn a little more easily but still works great!) 1 clove garlic, minced or sliced 1 sprig rosemary, leaves torn off and chopped up Salt and pepper to taste Directions: Heat up your cast iron skillet over medium heat. The pan is ready when you sprinkle a drop of water and it dances across the surface.Salt and pepper your filets to taste.Add your butter or tallow to the pan and let it melt. Then add the garlic and rosemary and let it cook a couple minutes til fragrant.Place the filet steaks into the cast iron. Make sure there is plenty of space around the steaks so there is proper air flow for a nice sear. Cook on each side for a few minutes or until nicely seared. Then place a lid over the pan to trap in heat, turn the heat to low, and let cook until the internal temp of the steaks reaches your desired doneness. I like to do mine to 130F, or medium rare. And there you have it! Quick, simple, and easy. Pair with some asparagus, green beans, brussel sprouts, mashed potatoes, or salad. Cheers! ~Bethany
