Roasted Whole Filet Mignon Recipes

FILET WITH ROASTED GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Place the garlic cloves in a small ovenproof dish. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with foil and roast in the oven until the garlic is golden and soft, about 45 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
• To a large bowl, add the softened butter, parsley, chives, thyme, red pepper and the roasted garlic. Using a spatula, mix everything together until well combined. Lay out a large piece of plastic wrap and add the butter in a long strip down the middle. Pull one side of the plastic wrap over the butter and gently form it into a log. Tightly twist the ends like a candy wrapper, until everything is nice and tight. Transfer to the fridge for a couple hours to harden. (Butter can be made ahead; it will keep for 1 week in the fridge.)
• When you are ready to cook the steaks, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Sprinkle the steaks liberally with salt and pepper. Add the remaining tablespoon each olive oil and butter to an ovenproof skillet and place over a medium-high heat. When the oil is hot and the butter is melted, place the steaks in the skillet and cook until well browned, about 1 minute per side.
• Place the skillet in the oven and cook the steaks for 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare. Remove from the oven and top each steak with a thick slice of the garlic butter. Loosely cover with foil and allow to rest for 8 to 10 minutes.

FILET MIGNON ROAST WITH ROASTED WINTER VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Vegetables: Add all the vegetables, the garlic, olive oil, rosemary salt and pepper, to taste, in single layers on 2 baking sheets. Toss until well coated. Roast until all the vegetables are golden brown and tender, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Keep warm until serving.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• Roast: Combine the oil, mustard, garlic, rosemary and pepper in a small bowl. Coat the tenderloin with the mustard mixture. This can be done the day before and left in the refrigerator overnight. Just before roasting, season generously with salt, to taste. Set the tenderloin in a large roasting pan and put it in the center of the oven on the middle rack. Roast until an instant-read meat-thermometer registers 135 degrees F, about 20 minutes. Remove the roast from the oven to a cutting board. Allow it to rest for 10 minutes, tented with aluminum foil. Slice the meat and arrange on a serving platter. Serve alongside the warm roasted vegetables.

• Roast in the oven for exactly 22 minutes for rare and 25 minutes for medium-rare.
• Remove the beef from the oven, cover it tightly with aluminum foil, and allow it to rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
• Remove the strings and slice the fillet thickly.
• Note: Be sure your oven is very clean or the high temperature will cause it to smoke.
