PREPARING THE CHARMOULA SAUCE
Take the Fullblood Wagyu filet mignon steaks out of the refrigerator, and place them on a plate at room temperature (while you prepare the charmoula sauce).

Put the lid on the blender, and take out the center piece.
Start the blender, and slowly drizzle in the olive oil while the machine is running.
Once the sauce is blended, stop the machine.
Taste the sauce, and season with kosher salt and black pepper as necessary. Set it aside.
NOTE: This sauce can be made up to one day in advance.
