1.5 lbs filet mignon steaks
2 tbsp olive oil
4 oz unsalted butter, softened
1-2 tbsp truffle oil Shop
1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp salt
0.5 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1 Prepare the truffle butter by combining the softened unsalted butter, truffle oil (start with 1 tablespoon and taste), and finely chopped fresh parsley in a small bowl. Mix thoroughly until well combined, then set aside. This will infuse the butter with its signature aroma and flavor.
2 Pat the filet mignon steaks completely dry with paper towels, which helps achieve a better sear. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper, ensuring even coverage for optimal flavor. Let the steaks rest at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes before cooking.
3 Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet, such as cast iron, over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Carefully place the seasoned filet mignon steaks into the hot skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Sear the steaks for approximately 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness, until a deep golden-brown crust forms. USDA recommends 145°F (63°C) plus a 3-minute rest.
4 Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the minced garlic to the skillet, sautéing for about 30-60 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it. Remove the skillet from the heat and place a generous dollop of the prepared truffle butter on top of each steak. Allow the butter to melt and baste the steak for about 2-3 minutes, infusing it with the truffle essence.
5 Once the truffle butter has melted and coated the steaks, carefully transfer the filet mignon to serving plates. Spoon any remaining melted truffle butter from the pan over the steaks. Serve immediately, allowing the rich truffle aroma to enhance the dining experience.
