Description

This 3-ingredient grilled filet mignon recipe is a juicy steak dinner you’ll love for any weeknight or special occasions.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 8 oz filet mignon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Remove steaks 45 minutes prior to grilling to bring to room temperature.
  2. Heat grill to high heat, approximately 400°F-450°F.
  3. Pat steaks dry with a paper towel. Liberally season both sides with salt and pepper. (the thicker the steak the more salt you’ll want, the measurements are a base!!!)
  4. Place seasoned steaks on searing hot grill and close the grill. DO NOT TOUCH. Flip at recommended time below for desired doneness.
    • 3 to 4 minutes per side for rare (120°)
    • 4 to 5 minute per side for medium-rare (130°)
    • 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium (140°)
    • 6 to 8 minutes per side or well done (150°+)
  5. Once steaks reach doneness temperature, remove from grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes to allow juices to redistribute.
