Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices medium thick cut bacon
  • 2 filets mignon
  • Olive oil
  • Kosher salt & pepper

Instructions

  1. Remove your steaks from the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes before cooking to bring them to room temperature.
  2. Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Wrap a slice of bacon around each filet and secure with a toothpick. Rub the top and the bottom of the filets with a little olive oil. Season generously with salt and pepper. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat. Put the filets in the pan and sear each side for 1-2 minutes until you get a nice crust.
  3. Turn the stove off and put the pan in the oven. Cook times will vary depending on how long you seared the steaks and how thick they are. Check internal temperature after about 5 – 7 minutes. Remove at 125 degrees F for rare, 130 degrees for medium rare and 140 degrees for medium.
  4. Allow steaks to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving or cutting into.
