Fillet Mignon

Just by the look of it, its considered the fanciest and ostentatious cut of beef.

Filet mignon, is French meaning “thick, dainty slice”. We cut it from the tenderloin. Its is the most tender, yes tender enough to almost melt in your mouth.

The meat is very fine-grained in texture as well as low in fat, which makes it both buttery and mild in flavor.

Heads-up : Its tenderness makes it so prone to overcook, just sear them briefly over high heat, finishing them off at a lower temperature before serving them with a sauce that punches up their mild flavor.
