Ingredients
2 Sizzlefish Filet Mignons, thawed
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Black Pepper
2 tbsp. Olive Oil
3 tbsp. Unsalted Butter
1-2 sprigs Fresh Rosemary
1-2 sprigs Fresh Tarragon
2-3 Garlic Cloves, chopped
Directions
Step 1
Let the steaks sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400F.
Step 2
Season both sides of the steaks generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 3
Add the olive oil to a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Heat up for 1-2 minutes, until very hot but not smoky. Add the steaks to cook undisturbed 2-4 minutes, depending on desired doneness, then flip to sear untouched for 2 more minutes.
Step 4
Once flipped, add the butter, garlic, and fresh herbs. Baste the steaks in the melted butter for the last minute of cooking time. Transfer to the oven to bake for 5-6 minutes for medium rare, 6-7 minutes for medium, and 8-9 minutes for medium well.
Step 5
Let the steak rest for 6-8 minutes before slicing to serve.
Step 6
Enjoy!
