Ingredients

  • 4 (2-inch-thick) filets mignons, tied (10 ounces each)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons fine fleur de sel
  • 2 tablespoons coarsely cracked black peppercorns
  • 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat for 5 to 7 minutes.

Meanwhile, pat dry the filets mignons with paper towels. Brush the filets lightly all over with the oil. Combine the fleur de sel and cracked pepper on a plate and roll the filets on all sides in the mixture, pressing lightly to help the salt and pepper adhere. The steaks should be evenly coated with the salt and pepper.

When the pan is extremely hot, add the steaks and sear evenly on all sides (top, bottom, and sides) for about 2 minutes per side. (Be sure the cooking area is well ventilated.) You'll probably need about 3 turns to sear the sides and about 10 minutes total.

Remove the pan from the heat and arrange all the filets flat in the pan. Top each with a tablespoon of butter, then place the pan in the oven. Cook the filets for 8 to 12 minutes to 120 degrees for rare and 125 degrees for medium-rare. Remove the steaks to a platter, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes.

    Absouletly Perfectly Delicious. I tried this last night, very easy receipe, very easy to follow. Results were terrific. This is the first time my husband, in all our 15 years, did not ask for a steak sauce to eat with his steak. He complimented that it was the best steak he had ever had. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!

    Excellent! Better than a steakhouse. My family is a medium to medium-well steak, and 20 minutes was perfect (tested with thermometer. Definately use the cast iron skillet and let it rest at least 10 minutes. So juicy and tender!

    I now know how to cook the perfect steak every time and if you add a mushroom side and onion rings, you will out do any steakhouse in town for 1/2 the price.
