Tender Pan-Seared Filet with Garlic-Herb Butter
Pan-seared filet mignon basted in a fragrant garlic-herb ghee, served with crisp-tender roasted asparagus for a decadent and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz filet mignon
1 tbsp ghee
2 whole garlic cloves
1 sprig fresh rosemary
1 sprig fresh thyme
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup asparagus spears
PREPARATION
Remove the filet mignon from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to allow it to reach room temperature for even cooking.
Pat the steak completely dry with paper towels and season generously with sea salt and black pepper on all sides.
Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it is very hot and begins to smoke slightly.
Place the steak in the hot skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until a deep golden-brown crust forms.
Reduce the heat to medium and add the ghee, smashed garlic cloves, rosemary, and thyme to the pan.
Tilt the pan slightly and use a large spoon to continuously baste the steak with the melted herb-infused ghee for the final 2 minutes of cooking.
Transfer the steak to a cutting board or plate and let it rest for at least 5-8 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
While the steak rests, toss the asparagus into the same skillet and sauté in the remaining pan juices for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender.
