Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 filet mignon steaks, 6 oz each
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 pound mixed vegetables (such as carrots, bell peppers, and zucchini), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the grill to high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, minced garlic, chopped thyme, and salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
- Season the filet mignon steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or to your desired level of doneness.
- During the last 2 minutes of grilling, spread the garlic butter mixture over the steaks and allow it to melt and create a flavorful crust. Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes before serving.
- While the steaks are resting, preheat the oven to 425°F.
- In a large bowl, toss the mixed vegetables with olive oil, dried rosemary, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve the grilled filet mignon with the roasted vegetables on the side, and enjoy!
