1
Season the Filet Mignon
Pat the filet mignon pieces dry with a paper towel. Season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
2
Wrap with Bacon
Take one bacon strip and wrap it around each filet mignon. Ensure that the ends of the bacon strip are secured, either by tucking them underneath or using a toothpick.

3
Preheat the Pan or Grill
Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Add olive oil to the pan.
4
Sear the Filets
Once the pan is hot, place the bacon-wrapped filets in the skillet. Sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until the bacon is crispy and the filet is browned.
5
Optional - Add Butter and Rosemary
If using, add butter and a sprig of fresh rosemary to the pan during the last minute of cooking for added flavor.
6
Cook to Desired Doneness
Continue cooking the filet mignon until it reaches your desired level of doneness (approximately 5-7 minutes for medium-rare). Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.

7
Rest and Serve
Remove the filets from the pan and let them rest for about 5 minutes before serving. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
8
Optional - Garnish
Garnish with additional fresh rosemary if desired, and serve with your choice of sides.
