Filet Mignon with Mustard: A Tasty and Easy Recipe to Make

Filet mignon is best enjoyed immediately after resting for a few minutes to retain its juiciness and flavor.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave.
Variations:

For an added touch of richness, top the steak with a dollop of blue cheese or béarnaise sauce.
Swap out the Dijon mustard for whole grain mustard for a more textured, hearty sauce.
If you prefer a smokier flavor, add a dash of smoked paprika to the mustard sauce.
FAQ:

Can I use a different type of steak? Yes, you can substitute filet mignon with other tender cuts like ribeye, sirloin, or New York strip, but the cook times will vary depending on the thickness of the steak.

How can I tell when the steak is done? Using a meat thermometer is the best way to ensure the steak reaches your preferred doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F.

Can I make the mustard sauce ahead of time? Yes, the mustard sauce can be made ahead and stored in the refrigerator. Just reheat it before serving.
