Yield 2 fillets, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

two 8oz filet mignon
kosher salt
ground pepper
garlic powder
fresh thyme sprig
1/4 cup salter butter
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/3 cup bourdeaux wine

Steps:

  • Generously salt, pepper filets, add garlic powder. Refrigerate until 30 minutes before cooking. Allow filets to come to room temperature, about 30 minutes, before cooking. This is an important step!

  • Place steaks in oil and sear on both sides on HIGH for 2 minutes each side.
  • Once seared, add 2T butter, minced garlic and thyme to pan.
  • Transfer skillet to oven preheated to 450 degrees. Cook, without turning for 3 minutes, or until rare/ med-rare (130 - 140 degrees).
  • Remove skillet from oven, return to stove top on medium heat. Add more butter, thyme, garlic and some red wine. Just enough time to baste.
  • Place on plate and allow to rest 5 minutes.
