Perfect Indoor Filet Mignon Recipe


Perfect Indoor Filet Mignon Recipe
I have always struggled to make a great-tasting steak without firing up the grill. This technique results in a perfect filet every time, assuming you start with a good piece of meat.

Ingredients
  • 2-6 oz. bacon-wrapped filets
  • 2 T. bacon fat (use olive oil if you prefer but, what the heck, you're eating steak!)
  • 1 T. fresh course-ground black pepper
  • Ovenproof skillet

Directions
  1. Rub pepper into filets. Allow to stand at room temperature approximately 15 minutes while oven preheats.
  2. Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
  3. After oven is heated, melt bacon fat in skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  4. Add filets to skillet and cook 3 minutes on each side, until nicely browned.
  5. Move skillet to oven and cook 6 - 8 minutes for medium-rare.
  6. Remove skillet from oven, tent with aluminum foil and let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Thank you for this great recipe. Will attempt this weekend. Sounds fabulous.


This does sound fabulous! The last time I attempted to make filets indoor was a disaster. I charred them beyond all recognition while cooking dinner for a new boyfriend. I think he forgave me though, because now he's my husband. I'll surprise him with these for Father's Day. Thanks for the post!


Love Filet...gotta try, Thanks!


This sounds fabulous. May give a try tonight. Got an order of Omaha Steaks in this morning. Don't have a grill anymore, so gotta try somethin' inside.
