Filet is lean and tender, which means it asks for a good crust and a careful pull. A butter baste with herbs is the classic finish.

Directions

1. Oil the steak and season with salt and pepper.
2. Add oil to a pan and heat over medium-high.
3. Add garlic or herbs of your choice.
4. Sear about 2 to 3 minutes per side — edges included.
5. Add butter and herbs and let them melt.
6. Baste the steak with the pan juices.
7. Continue flipping until the internal temperature reaches 135°F.
8. Rest for 10 minutes.
9. Slice and serve.
