I would like to cook just half a filet of beef instead of the whole thing as there are only two of us in our household. Do I proceed as the recipe says, at 500 degrees F, and cook it for the same amount of time as a whole filet?

Half a filet of beef will cook at exactly the same temperature and for the exact same amount of time as a whole filet of beef.
