INGREDIENTS

  • Meat

    • 🥩 4 (4 ounce) filet mignon (beef tenderloin)

  • Oil

    • 1 teaspoon olive oil

  • Pork

    • 🥓 3 slices bacon, chopped

  • Dairy

    • 🧈 1 tablespoon butter
    • 🥛 ¼ cup half-and-half cream

  • Vegetable

    • 🧅 4 shallots, diced

  • Seasoning

    • 🧂 salt and pepper to taste

STEPS

1

Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

2

Brush filets with olive oil, and cook on the preheated grill to desired doneness (about 4 minutes per side for medium rare). An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130°F (54°C). Set steaks aside on a platter tented with aluminum foil to rest.

3

While steaks are resting, prepare the sauce. Cook and stir the chopped bacon in a small saucepan over medium heat until bacon pieces are crisp, 3 to 5 minutes.

4

Stir in butter and shallots, and cook and stir until shallots are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes more.

5

Stir in half-and-half, bring mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook, occasionally stirring, until sauce is slightly thickened, about 8 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve over steaks.
