Beef filet, often referred to as filet mignon, is a premium cut derived from the tenderloin of a cow. Regarded for its buttery texture and mild flavor, it is a staple in French and American cuisines, frequently served grilled, pan-seared, or roasted. This cut is naturally lean, making it lower in fat compared to other beef options, while still being rich in high-quality protein, iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which support muscle growth, immune health, and energy metabolism. However, due to its minimal fat content, it may be less flavorful unless enhanced with seasoning, sauces, or accompaniments. When consumed in moderation and paired with balanced sides like vegetables or whole grains, beef filet can be part of a healthy diet. Overindulgence or pairing it with calorie-dense sides, however, may contribute to an excess in saturated fat and calories.
