1 servings

  • 6 oz filet mignon
  • coarse salt, to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil, or other high-heat, neutral oil of choice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • Generously season all sides of the filet mignon with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a medium, oven-safe stainless steel or cast iron skillet over high heat for 5 minutes. Add the grapeseed oil.

  • Tilt the pan and spoon the butter continuously over the steak for 2-3 minutes.
  • Transfer the pan to the oven for 7 minutes for a medium rare steak.
  • Transfer the steak to a cutting board and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
