Ingredients

• 2 (10-ounce) filet mignon
• Oil for coating (vegetable or coconut oil)
• Salt and pepper for seasoning (or 1 tablespoon of crushed peppercorns)
• Butter (optional)

Directions

• Place your cast-iron skillet in the cold oven and pre-heat it to 500 degrees F.
• Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and bring them to room temperature.
• Rub them with the oil.
• Season both sides with the salt and pepper (or the peppercorns).
• Once the oven has reached 500 degrees remove the skillet and place it on a burner set to high heat. Let the skillet set for 4-5 minutes.
• Once the skillet is ready, place the steaks in the middle of the hot, dry skillet. Let it sear for 3-4 minutes without touching! Then flip and sear the other side. (You are going for a very well-seared brown, crust.)
• Place the skillet back in the oven. For medium, allow steaks to cook for an additional four minutes on each side, or until a meat thermometer reads 140 to 145 degrees F. (Adjust time by one to two minutes less for rare or more for well done.)
• Remove the steaks, place on platter and add the butter (if using) to each steak. Allow steaks to rest for 5 minutes.
