Beef tenderloin in bacon

8 servings

15 minutes

Beef tenderloin wrapped in bacon is the essence of Italian gastronomy, a combination of juicy meat and crispy bacon that gives the dish a rich flavor. The recipe traces back to Tuscan traditions where meat is grilled with minimal spices to highlight its natural taste. The tenderloin, wrapped in strips of bacon, is first seared to a golden crust and then brought to perfect tenderness while soaking in butter. Lemon zest and green peas add fresh notes that balance the density of the meat flavors. This dish pairs wonderfully with a glass of red wine, creating an atmosphere of a cozy Italian dinner.
