Decide whether to cook your filet primarily over high heat or low heat. There are pretty much two camps when it comes to how to cook meat: the high heat camp and the low heat camp. The high heat camp is straightforward: Cook the filet for 2-5 minutes per side over high heat, searing it to seal in the juices. While this method can certainly produce a fine filet mignon, the searing to seal in the juices idea has been debunked.
The Perfect Filet Mignon Roast. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large roasting pan with rack, lay the slices of the prosciutto on the bottom of rack horizontally, overlapping slices. Place the Filet Mignon roast on top of prosciutto. Season the meat with salt, pepper and garlic powder generously. Pour about 4 cups of water in the bottom of roasting pan, just below the meat but not touching. Drizzle olive oil over meat. Cook for 20 minutes per pound, about 2 hours. Rotate the roast every half hour. Remove from rack, and place onto cutting board, allow the roast to sit for 5 to 7 minutes before carving. Carve into 1-inch slices.
