    Recipe Introduction


    Grilling this recipe is best because it's the best way to get the bacon crispy at the same time the meat is done (pan frying tends to leave the bacon a bit soggy for our tastes). Besides, it's springtime, so if you haven't fired up the grill yet, what better time?

    List of Ingredients




    Bacon-Wrapped Filet Mignon



    * 4 filet mignons (about 1-1/2 to 2 inches thick)
    * 4 slices bacon
    * Wooden toothpicks
    * 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    * 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
    * Salt and pepper

    Recipe




    * Wrap each filet in a strip of bacon around the perimeter of the filet.

    * Fix bacon strips to filets with toothpicks.

    * Lightly brush top and bottom of each filet with olive oil.

    * Rub 1/4 of garlic onto each filet.

    * Salt and pepper to taste.

    * Grill over medium high heat until bacon starts to crisp (approximately 5-7 minutes per side, for medium rare).

    Serving Suggestion

    * Vegetables: Steamed or boiled asparagus; and/or, steamed or boiled broccoli.

    * Starch: Mashed or baked potatoes, whichever mom prefers!
