About Filet migion
Filet mignon, French for "tender filet," is a premium cut of beef prized for its buttery texture and mild flavor. Derived from the tenderloin, it is one of the leanest cuts of steak, containing minimal fat compared to ribeye or strip steaks. A typical 3-ounce serving delivers around 200 calories, 23 grams of high-quality protein, and essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, supporting muscle development, energy production, and immune health. Its origins are rooted in French cuisine, but this delicacy is now celebrated worldwide, often served pan-seared or grilled for maximum tenderness. While filet mignon is nutritionally rich, portion control is key to managing saturated fat content, which can contribute to heart health concerns if overconsumed. Pairing it with vegetable sides and lighter sauces helps balance its indulgent profile, making it a satisfying choice for special occasions or refined dining experiences.
