Gorgonzola-Stuffed Beef Tenderloin Filets

Recipe Ingredients

8		Beef tenderloin filets - (6 to 8 oz ea)
4 oz	113g	Gorgonzola cheese - crumbled
1		Green onions - finely chopped
1/2 cup	73g / 2.6oz	Fine bread crumbs
1 tablespoon	15ml	Red wine
8		Thick-sliced hickory-smoked bacon strips
2 tablespoons	30ml	Minced garlic
1 tablespoon	15ml	Coarsely-ground black pepper

Recipe Instructions

In a small bowl, combine stuffing ingredients: cheese, pepper, green onion, bread crumbs, and wine.

Place the beef filets on a work surface and make a side cut 2/3 of the way through the steak to form a pocket. Divide the stuffing between the steaks and fill. Wrap the bacon around the outside edge of steak to conceal stuffing cut and secure with wooden or metal skewer. Rub the outside of the steak with the garlic and pepper. Steaks may be assembled the day ahead and refrigerated until grilling.

Preheat grill to medium high heat. Grill steaks 5 to 8 minutes per side, depending on desired doneness. Serve immediately.

This recipe yields 8 servings.
