BHA & BHT Free Paleo Filet Mignon with Herb Butter

Few cuts of beef feel as celebratory as filet mignon, and this version delivers a steakhouse-worthy experience entirely from your own kitchen. The sear-to-oven method builds a deep, caramelized crust before a quick roast brings the center to a perfect, rosy medium-rare — no guesswork, just results. What makes this recipe especially clean is how straightforward every ingredient is: fresh herbs, avocado oil, ghee, and quality salt are all you need, with zero processed additives hiding in the mix. Conventional compound butters and bottled marinades are common sources of synthetic preservatives, so making your own herb butter from scratch with ghee, parsley, thyme, rosemary, and garlic keeps everything exactly as it should be. The ghee melts luxuriously over the hot steak at the table, carrying those bright, aromatic flavors into every bite. A touch of lemon zest in the butter is optional but genuinely worth it — it lifts the richness just enough to make the whole dish feel balanced rather than heavy. This is the kind of recipe that looks impressive, tastes even better, and gives you complete control over what goes on your plate.
