Directions

TO PREPARE THE TARRAGON BUTTER: Sauté the shallots in 1 teaspoon butter for 3 to 4 minutes, or until beginning to brown.

Stir into the remaining butter, along with the tarragon.

Divide into two mounds; flatten between sheets of wax paper.

Place in the freezer.

TO COOK THE STEAKS:

Preheat the oven to 400℉ (200℃).

Heat the oil in a cast-iron skillet or oven-proof pan over high heat.

Salt and pepper the filets.

Brown on all sides.

Put the pan in the oven; bake for 5 minutes (for medium-rare).

Let the steaks rest for 10 minutes covered with foil before serving.

When ready to serve, top with Tarragon Butter.
