Recipe Introduction


Beef fillets add a bit of elegance to a casual festive feast. Best of all, they are easy on the cook because they take mere minutes to prepare.




List of Ingredients




12 bacon strips
1 teaspoon rubbed sage
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried savory
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 beef tenderloin fillets (1 to 1-1/2 inches thick and 6 ounces each)


Recipe



Place six bacon strips at a time, on a microwave-safe plate lined with microwave-safe paper towels. Cover with another paper towel; microwave on high for 2-3 minutes or until partially cooked.

In a small bowl, combine the sage, rosemary, savory, pepper and salt; rub over steaks. Wrap two strips of bacon around sides of fillets and secure with toothpicks.

Broil 3-4 in. from the heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°).

Discard toothpicks.

Yield: 6 servings.
