Step 1
Add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of pepper, 1 teaspoon of minced garlic, ¼ cup of dry red wine, and ½ cup of beef broth in a zippered plastic bag. Place the filet mignon steak into the bag and place the bag in the refrigerator.
-
Step 2
Allow the filet mignon to marinate for 1 to 2 hours, then remove it from the refrigerator. Save all excess marinade for later use. Place the steak onto a roasting pan and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
-
Step 3
Roast the filet mignon for 10 minutes, and then baste with the marinade. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F, and allow the steak to cook for an additional 20 minutes. Baste the steak every 10 minutes while cooking.
-
Step 4
Remove the filet mignon from the oven and place it onto a cutting board. Cover the steak with aluminum foil and allow it to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. The internal temperature of the meat will raise an additional 5 degrees F during this time.
-
Step 5
Take the aluminum foil off of the filet mignon and slice into smaller steaks with a sharp knife. Serve the filet mignon at once for ideal texture and flavor.
