Having a filet tonight. Here is what I'm thinking:
Heat up a pan as hot as possible. Add a good amount of butter. Add the steak. As soon as one side is nice and seared, flip it over (make sure there is still butter in the pan) and sear the other side. Then throw it in the oven that has been pre-heated as hot as possible. Cook to desired wellness (medium for me).
Thoughts? I tried the above the other day, but finished it on a charcoal grill. It tasted great, but didn't taste like a steakhouse style steak (it tasted great, but just a different taste). I want it to taste like it cam from a fancy restaurant.
The filet came from HEB, prime filet ($20 a pound I believe), so it should be quality.
Thanks!
