    The best way to cook beef tenderloin filets combines two time-honored techniques. Pan-searing on the stovetop will create a tasty Maillard reaction for flavor. And then bake in an oven to your perfect final temperature.

    👍Why you should try this recipe.

    • A properly cooked filet mignon is the best steak for any special occasion.
    • You get never fail results every time that is perfect for two or a crowd.
    • Quick and easy, this mignon filet recipe is the perfect date night recipe anybody can do in under 30 minutes, including resting time.
    • Learn to sear then bake filet mignon like the best restaurants cook. You can do the same at home.

    👨‍🍳How to Cook Filet Mignon

    1. Pat dry and rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes if you have time while preheating the oven to 400°.
    2. Sear in a hot cast-iron pan with butter for about 2 minutes per side to get to about the final color you want.
    3. Transfer the seared filet mignon in the pan to a preheated oven and cook to an internal temperature of about 3°-5° less than your desired final filet mignon temp.
    4. Remove from the oven and tent with foil for 5-8 minutes.

    For grilled filet mignon, please see How to Grill Filet Mignon, which is equally delicious.

    ⏰How long to cook filet mignon

    The total cooking time for medium-rare with a 400° oven is about 9-11 minutes—about 4 minutes searing plus oven time. Don't forget to add 5-8 minutes of rest time in addition to cooking time.

    Approximate cooking times in a 400° oven are estimated for planning only.

    • Rare—cold red center(125°-130°)—4-minute sear and 4-5 minutes oven time for about 8-9 minutes total cooking time. Please see the caution below for rare.
    • Medium-Rare—warm red and soft center(130°-135°)—4-minute sear and 5-7 minutes oven time for about 9-11 minutes total cooking time.
    • Medium—pink and firm (140°-150°)—4-minute sear and 8-10 minutes oven time for about 11-13 minutes total cooking time.
    • Medium-Well—minimal pink(150°-155°)—4-minute sear and 12-15 minutes oven time for about 16-19 minutes total cooking time—not recommended.
    • Well-Done—firm and brown(160°+ )—4-minute sear and 15+ minutes oven time for about 19+ minutes total cooking time—not recommended.

    Actual cooking time will vary by thickness, rest time, searing, and oven temperature—NEVER COOK BY TIME ALONE, and use a thermometer.

    Pick the internal temperature you want when served. Remove the steak a few degrees less and tent lightly with foil. The filet temperature will rise 2°-4° while resting. You can not uncook meat but can always cook it a bit more. Be sure to check your temperature early,

    WARNING FOR RARE: For rare, it may be only a few minutes in the oven. If you did an intense sear with a rest to room temperature or if your filets are thinner, check the temperature of the meat when it goes into the oven if you want rare. It is hard to hit what you want, so observe and remove it early. You can always cook it a bit more later.

    ✔️Tips

    Filet Steaks tips

    • Quality matters A LOT. Buy prime grade if you can afford it, or choice grade will also give excellent results.
    • If you have questions, talk to your local butcher—they love to discuss their products and have a wealth of knowledge.
    • A filet will be about 2-3 inches in diameter. An ideal serving size is a slice of about 1 ½ inches thick or slightly less and will weigh about 8 ounces.
    • The exact weight of various thicknesses of filets varies by diameter. One inch will be about 6-7 ounces.
    • The thicker the steak, the more important the precooking rest at room temperature becomes to get the internal temperature you want.
    • Skipping the rest before cooking will increase the cooking time by as much as 50% or more. And adversely affect the surface cooking.
    • The 5 to 8 minutes rest after cooking before cutting is essential for moist and tender final results. It allows moisture that comes out of the cells during cooking time to reabsorb, assuring perfect results.

    Seasoning tips

    • A good shake of Kosher or sea salt and black pepper is enough. We like to use my All Purpose Seasoning - 7:2:1 and 7:2:2 that adds some garlic.
    • Other seasoning options include rosemary or a sprig of fresh thyme. Herb butter, like Blue Cheese and Garlic Compound Butter, will add many flavors.
    • The timing of any salt is important. Do not put salt on the meat for more than a few minutes before cooking unless you do 60 minutes or more. Between those times, it will pull water out of the meat but not allow enough time to reabsorb back into it.

    Cooking tips

    • Real butter adds some excellent flavor. I have never had a problem with butter smoking with this method, but it may smoke if you have a powerful stove and use high heat.
    • If you have issues with smoking butter, then in the future, use high-quality vegetable oil.
    • If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, any oven-safe skillet that can move from stovetop to oven will do. Most skillets will be oven safe but have a temperature limit set by the manufacturer.
    • If you want to use fresh herbs, like thyme or rosemary, put them on top of the steaks with a pat of butter as you move them to the oven.

    🐄About Filet Mignon

    Use only prime or choice-grade filet mignon steak. An 8 oz of filet mignon is a nice serving size. That will usually be between 1 to 1 ¼ inches thick.

    Filet Mignon steaks are sometimes called filet steaks or beef tenderloin steaks. It is part of the psoas muscle of the cow. Since the psosis does very little work nor is weight-bearing, it is the most tender cut of beef.

    🍳Why Use Cast Iron

    The best choice is a cast-iron skillet. The flat bottom will transfer even heat over its surface without hot spots. This makes cast iron the best choice for pan-searing any meat. It is cheap, and every cook should have a skillet or two.

    ❓FAQs

    Why sear filet mignon?

    The secret to cooking the perfect filet mignon steak is to pan-sear to get some Maillard reaction (tasty browning), then finish in a 400°-425° oven to the final temperature you want. It is that simple—really.

    Use paper towels to pat the filet mignon steaks dry, then season to your preference. Heat your pan on medium-high heat with a tablespoon of butter until bubbling. Then add the meat to the melted butter and sear for about 2 minutes until you reach the final color you want.

    Why and how to rest filet mignon before and after cooking?

    Resting before cooking will elevate the internal temperature of the meat before cooking. This helps prevent overcooking and drying of the surface of meat while getting the correct internal temperature.

    30 to 60 minutes will do a good job, but even 15 minutes will have some benefits. Without this, cooking will take longer, and you may overcook and dry out the outside of the meat—significantly if cooking a thicker filet.

    Resting after cooking is probably the biggest secret to a great filet most people skip. It is essential since it will allow the fluid that escapes the cells during cooking to migrate back into the cells and make for a moist and tender filet.

    I like to tent the cooked filets with foil for about 5+ minutes before serving.

    Can I cook a filet without a thermometer?

    No. You must monitor the temperature correctly, or you will ruin your expensive meat. Please do not try to cook by time alone.

    An instant-read meat thermometer will serve you well with this and many other recipes.

    How to cook fillet mignon 2 inches or thicker.

    For 2 inches or more filets, under sear a little before entering the oven.

    Then bake as described to the final internal temperature, but it will take longer depending on the size and thickness of the filets. You can sear a bit more when coming out of the oven.

    How to make it Filet Au Poivre.

    Filet Au Poivre is a beef filet with a heavy coat of cracked pepper—about 1 ½ teaspoon per filet. Add a bit of salt and cook per this recipe. There is an accompanying sauce that has a liquor or wine base.

    You can make the reduction sauce by adding a tablespoon of butter to the hot pan after removing the filets over medium heat and cooking a couple of minced scallops until soft. Add a clove of crushed garlic and ¾ cup of good red wine.

    Up the heat to high and whisk until the mixture thickens moderately and reduces in volume—about 5 minutes when the sauce sticks to a spoon. Return the filets to the pan, spoon the sauce over the fillets, and serve.

    🍽️What to serve with filet

    Filet mignon goes with almost anything you like with a nice meal. Our favorites are crusty bread, baked potatoes, and steamed broccoli. Other excellent side dishes are a simple salad or another vegetable like asparagus, green beans, roasted brussels sprouts, or broccoli will match nicely.

    For a wine pairing, choose a red wine like merlot, pinot noir, or cabernet.

    Recipe Notes

    Pro Tips:

    1. An 8 oz filet will be about 2-3 inches diameter and 1 ¼ to 1 ½ inches thick. Quality matters a lot with filets, use prime if you can but choice grade will work.
    2. Resting at room temperature will help you get the final internal temperature you want without drying the surface of the meat.
    3. Try to season one hour before cooking or just before cooking.
    4. You may use butter or oil in the pan. Butter has a lower smoke point, but I have never had an issue.
    5. Pan should be hot and the meat dry before starting to sear.
    6. Sear each side to approximately the final color you want and do a final flip just before going in the oven.
    7. If you want rare and especially if the filet is thinner, check the temperature when it goes in the oven.
    8. I suggest checking the internal temperature of the filet about 4-5 minutes after going into the oven.
    9. There is a lot of variability in the time here. The thickness of the meat, the exact starting temperature, the stovetop, amount of searing, exact oven temps, and the pan. All very good reasons not to go by time. Time estimates is given as guides for time management.
    10. PLEASE USE AN INSTANT-READ THERMOMETER. DO NOT COOK BY TIME ALONE; YOU MUST CHECK INTERNAL TEMPERATURE.
    11. Times are provided to help planning only. You are responsible if you overcook it. You can always cook it a bit more later but you can not uncook an overcooked filet.
    12. Remove from the oven a few degrees below your final desired temperature. It will rise a few degrees when tented.
    13. Let rest tented for 5-8 minutes before serving.

    To adjust the recipe size:

    You may adjust the number of servings in this recipe card under servings. This does the math for the ingredients for you. BUT it does NOT adjust the text of the instructions. So you need to do that yourself.

      Oh my goodness! You, dear new friends, guided me to a New Year's Eve dinner that was amazing! I *rarely* cook steak, much less "fancy" steak. A friend gifted me with some filet mignon. A grand gift, to be sure. But i was clueless how to prepare them.

      I found your post and followed it from beginning to end. The supper dishes aren't even put away yet and here I am posting my gratitude to you! Thank you for your impeccable directions. Happy New Year!

        Great, easy way to make filets. My husband was wonderfully surprised. He doesn't cook, so it's all on me! I am a terrible cook. After many, many failed attempts to cook filets on grill, I lucked upon these instructions. Wallah! No more ruined, expensive filets. Not restaurant perfect yet, but I'll keep trying!

        Hi Mayela,

        Welcome to the blog.

        There is no good answer. Medium is about 145-degree internal temperature. So we cook to a final internal temperature and never by time. So the variability of the oven, the pan, the thickness of the meat, and how long you sear will all affect the amount of oven time. So read instructions #4,5 and 6 in the recipe card for more information. My oven time, with my pans, my searing, and 1-inch thick filets is usually 12-15 minutes. Your time may be markedly different.

        Hi Bonnie,

        Welcome to the blog.

        Please do not cook this by time. You are cooking to a final internal temperature. You probably want 155 to 160. And the time will vary by the thickness and size of the filets. For my usual 1 1/4 inch 8oz will probably take about 16-18 minutes but it is very easy to overshoot so watch carefully and do not try this without an instant-read thermometer.

      Hi,
      Haven't seen this question: I need to sear my filets at home and then refrigerate them to bring later on to another location's kitchen to then finish them in their oven. Suggestions?
      Should I take the out of the fridge for a half hour or hour before putting them in the hot oven?
      Presume I should transfer them to a pre-heated pan first? (There will be about 10 filets).
      Thanks for your help!

        Hi Connie,

        Welcome to the blog.

        Sorry for the delayed response. I was getting the "Guide to Cooking for Two" finished and published and than address a few issues. It was a multi-year project.

        On to your question.

        I would not pre-sear and then try to get the filets to finish cooking in the oven at later. The fibers will loss moist and I doubt you will like the results.

        Since it sounds like you can't sear at the second location, I would take raw filet. I would have them rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes before seasoning, then into a preheated oven with a preheated pan. In about 10 minutes, Flip them and check their temperature. Cook a bit more if needed. When you are within about 10 degrees. Hit them with a broiler to finish. I have done similar with some chicken recipes but not filets. That is the best I can suggest and believe it would be good.

        Let me know if you do it so others will know.

      Thanks for the instructions. Husband didn't feel like grilling tonight so I fixed it in the oven. Seared first in a mix of salted butter and garlic/lemon/herb infused olive oil for 3 min/side, then 10 min. in 450 convection for med/med-well. It was perfect. The whole family loved it, even 3 picky teenagers.

        Hi Sam,

        Welcome to the blog.

        First, I almost don't want to answer.... please DO NOT cook by time. There are variables of the thickness of the meat, temperature of the meat at the start of cooking, Conductivity of your pan. The temperature of your stovetop and the real temperature of your oven. You really need to use an instant read thermometer to get the results you want.

        But now an answer, I would check it at 10 minutes but expect about 14 minutes or a little more. For medium (like the picture at the top of this post with some pink), the internal temperature was about 145.

        A little short is always better. You can always stick it back in for a little more cooking but you can't uncook it.

        Hope that helps. I have two prime 10 ozs filets for the grill this evening.

        Dan
