A delightful twist on a classic dish, this recipe combines tender filet mignon with a flavorful herb citrus butter for a gourmet experience.
In a small bowl, mix the butter, parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Cover the butter mixture and refrigerate until ready to use.
Chilling the butter helps it hold its shape when placed on the hot steak.
Let the filet mignons sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before cooking.
Allowing the meat to reach room temperature ensures even cooking.
Brush both sides of the steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Use a light hand when seasoning to let the natural flavor of the meat shine.
Preheat the grill to high heat and cook the steaks for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
Use a meat thermometer to check doneness: 130°F for medium-rare.
Transfer the steaks to serving plates and top each with a dollop of the prepared butter.
Let the steaks rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain their juices.
Serve warm and enjoy your gourmet meal.
Pair with a fresh salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
