Provided by: Maya | Wholesome Yum
Total time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes
Prep time: 5 minutes
Yields: 8 servings
Cuisine: American
Number of ingredients: 7

Ingredients:

2 tbsp Unsalted butter ((softened, divided))
1/2 tbsp Fresh rosemary
1/2 tbsp Fresh thyme
1 clove Garlic ((minced))
4 8-oz Filet mignon steaks ((at room temperature))
Sea salt
Black pepper

Nutrition:

How to cook:

Remove your filet mignon from the fridge about 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature. (This will ensure even cooking.)
Mash together half of the butter (1 tablespoon, 14 g), rosemary, thyme, and garlic. (Sprinkle in a little sea salt if using unsalted butter.) Form into a log and refrigerate until the last step.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (204 degrees C).
Trim any connective tissue around the edges of the beef tenderloins. Season the filets liberally with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the cast iron skillet over medium-high heat, until the skillet is very hot. Melt the remaining butter (1 tablespoon, 14 g) in the skillet.
Add the filets. Sear for 2 minutes on each side, without moving them around.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake to desired level of doneness. (I recommend medium rare.) For a 2 in (5 cm)thick filet, that is 5 minutes for rare, 6 minutes for medium rare, 7 minutes for medium, or 8 minutes for medium well. Use a meat thermometer to check for the right temperature - 120 degrees F (52 degrees C) for rare, 130 degrees F (54 degrees C) for medium rare, 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium, and 155 degrees F (68 degrees C) for medium well. The temperature will rise by another 5 degrees F while resting (see next step).
Remove the filets from the oven and transfer to a plate. Top each with 1/2 tablespoon (7 g) of herb butter (slice the log of herb butter into four parts and put one on each steak). Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before cutting.

Ingredients:

2 cuts filet mignon (1" to 1 1/2" thick)
dry rub (to taste (click HERE))
1 c. balsamic vinegar
1/4 c. brown sugar
1 c. sliced mushrooms
1 c. sliced onions
3 Tbsp. butter
sliced green onion or chives for garnish
2 c. prepared loaded mashed potatoes (click HERE)
2/3 c. melted blue cheese sauce
sweet sauteed asparagus (prepared (click HERE))

How to cook:

Let the filets rest out of the refrigerator for 30-40 minutes prior to grilling (helps keep the meat tender...if you apply heat to chilled meat it shocks it & causes it to toughen up).
In the mean time, mix together all the dry rub ingredients. It will make more than you need, you can save the extra mix in the pantry.
When the filets are brought to room temperature, rub the spice mixture generously onto each piece.
Grill over medium heat to desired doneness (again, PLEASE do not over cook, it will taste best with a pink center-- medium rare is what I like best).
**If you don't have a grill, you can sear the filets in a pan then place them in the oven at 300 to 350-degrees until you reach the desired internal temperature.
Remove from heat and allow filets to sit about 2-3 minutes to let the juices settle into the filet.
Mix together balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Bring to a slight boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar is dissolved, reduce heat to LOW and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until it has reduced to a syrupy consistency and half of the original volume.
While the glaze is simmering, saute mushrooms and onions in butter until onions become soft and transparent. Remove from heat.
Layer sauteed onions/mushrooms over filet and drizzle with balsamic reduction and top with green onion.
If you want to do all the optional additions to make it a full meal, layer in this order: asparagus, loaded potatoes, filet, blue cheese, mushrooms/onions, and top with green onion.

How to cook:

{'@type': 'HowToStep', 'text': "Preheat oven to 400°. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat oil. Season steak with salt and pepper on both sides. When oil is just about to smoke, add steak. Cook until very seared, about 5 minutes, then flip and add butter and rosemary. Baste with butter and cook another 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and cook until cooked to your liking, about 5 minutes for medium. Pro tip: Check the temperature of your meat before transferring to the oven to see how far you are from the desired temperature. If you are within 10 degrees, you may need even less time. If your steak isn't done after 5 minutes, check every couple of minutes so you don't risk over cooking. Remove from pan and let rest 5 minutes before slicing."}
