Katya's Kitchen

This delicacy is a very filling source of protein. I like filet mignon served with a spinach and apple salad.

Ingredients

• 18 ounces filet mignon cut beef
• 1 tablespoon high temperature frying oil like avocado or sunflower oil
• 1 teaspoon coarse sea salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Cover the filet mignon in oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and let stand. Put the skillet on medium heat.

Step 2

Fry the beef on a hot skillet for 6 minutes on one side, and 3 minutes on the other. Immediately place the skillet into the oven for another 5 minutes.

Step 3

Check the inner temperature to be 130° to 135° F (54° to 57° C). Take the beef out, let it rest 2-3 minutes, then serve.
