About the Cut
What Makes Filet Mignon Special
The Filet Mignon is renowned as the most tender cut of beef, sourced from the small, cylindrical tenderloin muscle. Located along the spine, this muscle does minimal work, resulting in its buttery texture and delicate flavor. A perfect choice for elegant dishes, its smaller portion size makes it ideal for individual servings with maximum impact.
Cooking Instructions
For the best results, cook your Paloma Filet Mignon using these simple steps:
Prepare the Steak: Allow the filet to come to room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. Season generously with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
Sear: Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat and add a tablespoon of oil or butter. Sear the filet for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms.
Cook to Perfection: For medium-rare, transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 400°F and cook for 5-7 minutes, depending on thickness. Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 130°F.
Rest & Serve: Let the filet rest for 5 minutes under foil before slicing or serving. Pair with roasted vegetables, creamy mashed potatoes, or a bold red wine for a complete dining experience.
