Filet steak, often referred to as filet mignon, is a tender and lean cut of beef prized in cuisines worldwide, particularly French and American. This cut comes from the smaller end of the tenderloin, offering a delicate texture and mild flavor. Naturally low in fat compared to other steaks, filet steak is a good source of high-quality protein, iron, and essential B vitamins such as B12 and niacin, which are vital for energy and red blood cell production. Its tenderness makes it a preferred choice for health-conscious eaters seeking lower-fat red meat options. However, preparation methods can impact its nutritional profile, as rich sauces or excessive butter can add sodium and saturated fats. When paired with fresh vegetables or whole grains, filet steak can serve as part of a balanced diet, offering a satisfying and nutrient-rich culinary experience.
