INGREDIENTS

  • Main

    • 🥩 2 (8 ounce) filet mignon steaks
    • 🦀 1 pound fresh lump crabmeat
    • 🧈 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Pat filets dry; season with salt and black pepper.

2

Toss crabmeat with cooled melted butter; set aside. Heat olive oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat until hot, but not smoking. Add filets; brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to an oiled baking sheet.

3

Roast in the preheated oven, on the middle rack, until filets start to firm and are reddish-pink and juicy in centers, about 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into centers should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Top filets with crabmeat mixture.

💡 Ensure the skillet is very hot before browning the steaks to achieve a good crust.Let the filets rest for a few minutes after removing from the oven for better flavor and texture.Use fresh lump crabmeat for the best flavor, but if unavailable, good-quality canned crabmeat can work as an alternative.
