Notes

For a flavor twist, wrap your filet mignon in partially cooked bacon before grilling. If you have a preference for freshness, swap rosemary with thyme or use avocado oil instead of olive oil. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat gently in the oven. Avoid microwave reheating to prevent drying out the meat.
