Ingredients

Tender and delicious, we love a filet mignon cooked just right, and our Balsamic Steak Blend is the right choice for this perfectly pan seared cut. Rub the steaks on all sides (don’t forget the edges) with Balsamic Steak Blend and allow to sit for at least 30 minutes. If you have the time, do this early in the day. Be sure to remove the steaks from the fridge at least 3o mins prior to cooking. Now it’s time to sear and baste with garlicky-herby butter. Sublime.

Instructions

1.	Season the steaks on all sides: top, bottom and edges. First, season lightly with salt then season with Balsamic Steak Blend. Allow to sit for at least 30 minutes. If you do this earlier in the day, hold the steaks in the fridge. Be sure to remove from the fridge 30 mins prior to cooking to take off the chill.
2.	Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add in the butter and Avocado Oil and heat until the butter foams. Add the steaks, garlic and herbs. Sear the steaks for 3 minutes or until golden brown.
3.	Turn the steaks. Lower the heat to medium. Continue cooking while tilting the pan and repeatedly spooning the butter over the steaks. Cook until an instant read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the steak reads 135°F.
4.	Remove from the skillet and set on a plate. Allow to rest for 5-7 mins before serving or slicing. Serve with the garlic butter from the skillet.
