Seared Filet Medallions
These filet medallions are the perfect easy date night dinner! With a good sear and a simple rosemary garlic butter spooned over the steaks, each bite is perfect.
Ingredients
- 4 filet medallions about 2 ounces each, or 2 larger 4-ounce medallions
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Fresh Rosemary
Instructions
- Pat filet medallions dry. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add olive oil to the pan. Cook for 3 minutes without disturbing the steaks. Flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the steak internal temperature reaches 135F for medium rare.
- After you flip the steaks, add the butter and rosemary to the pan. Spoon butter over steaks while the steaks finish cooking.
- Remove steaks from pan and let rest for 10 minutes, then serve.
Notes
Note: This recipe serves 2 people, about 4 ounces of steak per person. If using thicker 4-ounce medallions, increase the cook time slightly and use a meat thermometer for best results.
