Pan-roasted Filet Mignon Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Filet Mignon

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the filet mignon pieces with salt and black pepper on both sides.

2. 2

   Wrap with Bacon

   Wrap each filet mignon with 2 slices of bacon, securing them with toothpicks if necessary.

3. 3

   Sear the Steaks

   In an oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the wrapped filet mignon and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bacon is crispy.

4. 4

   Caramelize the Shallots

   Remove the filets from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add sliced shallots and cook for about 2-3 minutes until they start to caramelize. Add the butter and fresh thyme, stirring to combine.

5. 5

   Finish in the Oven

   Return the filets to the skillet with shallots and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast for about 6-8 minutes for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached.

6. 6

   Rest and Serve

   Remove from the oven, let the filets rest for 5 minutes, then serve with the caramelized shallots on top.
