Bacon-Wrapped Filet Mignon with Green Beans

Step 1

Pat the 2 filet mignon steaks dry with paper towels. Wrap each steak with 2 bacon slices, tucking the ends underneath. Season all over with 0.25 tsp salt and 0.125 tsp pepper.

Step 2

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a 10 inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steaks and sear until the bacon is browned and crisp, about 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove to a plate and let rest.

Step 3

While the steaks rest, trim the ends off the 0.5 lb green beans and slice the 0.5 onion into thin strips.

Step 4

In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and the 1 tbsp butter. Add the green beans and onion, season with the remaining 0.25 tsp salt and 0.125 tsp pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are tender-crisp and the onion is soft, about 6-8 minutes.

Step 5

Slice the rested steaks against the grain and serve with the green bean mixture on the side.
