Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 (6 ounce) filet mignon steaks
seasoned salt to taste
cracked black pepper to taste
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups onion slices
1 teaspoon white sugar
4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Season steaks with seasoned salt and black pepper, and arrange in a single layer in a large baking dish. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, mustard, and rosemary. Pour mixture over filets, and turn to coat. Marinate for up to 30 minutes.
  • While you are marinating the meat, melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion slices in butter until soft, then stir in sugar. Continue cooking until onions are caramelized. Set aside.
  • Preheat grill for high heat on one side, and medium heat on the other side.
  • Lightly oil the grill grate. Place steaks on the hot side of the grill, and cook for 10 minutes, turning once. When the steaks are almost done, move to the cooler side of the grill. Top each filet with a quarter of the caramelized onions and blue cheese. Close the lid, and continue cooking until the cheese is melted.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your filet mignon will taste. Look for filet mignon steaks that are at least 1 inch thick and have good marbling.
  • Season the steaks generously: Season the steaks with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings before cooking. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the steaks from becoming bland.
  • Cook the steaks over high heat: Sear the steaks over high heat in a pan or on a grill to create a nice crust. This will help to lock in the juices and flavor.
  • Let the steaks rest before serving: After cooking, let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks, making them more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve with a flavorful sauce: A flavorful sauce can help to enhance the taste of the filet mignon. Try serving the steaks with a rich balsamic glaze, a creamy béarnaise sauce, or a classic red wine sauce.

Conclusion:

Filet mignon is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. By following these tips, you can create a perfectly cooked filet mignon that is sure to impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a special meal, give filet mignon a try.
