Serves: 4

Ingredients:

Directions:

Brush the filets with olive oil and pan sear them on a hot grill pan – about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. An instant-read thermometer inserted into
the center should read 130 degrees. Set the steaks aside on a platter tented with aluminum foil to rest.

While the steaks are resting, prepare the sauce:

While the steaks are resting, cook and stir the chopped bacon in a small saucepan over medium heat until the bacon pieces are crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir
in the butter and shallots, and cook and stir until the shallots are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes more. Add in the chopped mushrooms and cook
until the mushrooms are soft and cooked through.

Stir in the half-and-half, bring the mixture to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is slightly thickened,
about 8 minutes or a little longer, if necessary. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and serve over the steaks.
