The marinade infuses the meat with a mild, smoky heat characteristic of these New Mexico peppers. It comes ready to cook, simplifying meal preparation for those who enjoy a bit of spice.

To prepare, let the beef filet come to room temperature for about 20-30 minutes before cooking. For grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook for approximately 4-6 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. If pan-searing, heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear for the same amount of time, flipping halfway through. You can also broil it for a similar cooking duration. Allow the filet to rest for a few minutes before slicing.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike plain beef filets, this product is pre-seasoned with Hatch chiles, offering a unique peppery and slightly sweet flavor profile. The marinade also helps tenderize the meat and adds moisture during cooking, distinguishing it from unmarinated cuts.
