Ingredients:

4 bacon strips
100g
4 beef fillets beef fillet
640g
1/2 cup butter
110g
1/3 cup mushrooms
72g
3 cups spinach
90g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Beef Fillets:
Season each beef fillet evenly with salt and pepper on both sides. If using garlic, you can also rub a bit of the minced garlic on the beef fillets for extra flavor.
3. Wrap in Bacon:
Carefully wrap a strip of bacon around each beef fillet. Secure the bacon in place with a toothpick if needed.
4. Sear the Fillets:
Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of butter (about 1-2 tablespoons) to the skillet. Once the butter is melted and hot, sear the bacon-wrapped fillets for about 2-3 minutes on each side until the bacon is crispy and the beef is nicely browned.
5. Roast in the Oven:
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Roast the beef fillets for about 10-15 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (use a meat thermometer to check). For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C), and for medium, aim for 145°F (63°C).
6. Prepare the Garlic Mushrooms:
While the beef is roasting, melt the remaining butter in a separate pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic (if using) and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and golden brown. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Wilt the Spinach:
In the same pan with the mushrooms, add the spinach and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring until the spinach is wilted and nicely combined with the mushrooms. Season with a bit more salt and pepper, if desired.
8. Serve:
Remove the beef fillets from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Plate each beef fillet and top with a generous serving of garlic mushrooms and wilted spinach.

Tips:

- Make sure the beef fillets are at room temperature before you start cooking. This helps them to cook more evenly.

- For perfectly crispy bacon, pre-cook it for a few minutes before wrapping it around the beef fillets.

- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the beef fillets are cooked to your desired level of doneness.

- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the garlic mushrooms; this allows them to brown nicely without steaming.

- Season the spinach with a little salt and pepper after wilting it to enhance its natural flavors.

Bacon-wrapped beef with garlic mushrooms is a truly indulgent dish that's bursting with flavor and texture. The crispiness of the bacon, the tender beef fillet, the earthy garlic mushrooms, and the healthy spinach create an unforgettable dining experience. Serve this dish to your guests or enjoy it as a special meal for yourself; either way, it's bound to be a hit.
