Presidential Steak

(Courtesy of Mr Food)

Ingredients:
4 (6-8 oz.) 1 1/4 inch filet mignon steaks
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. black pepper
4 slices bacon
DIJON HERB BUTTER:
1/2 c. (1 stick) butter, softened
1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 Tbsp. fresh chopped parsley
1/8 tsp. cracked peppercorns


Directions:
In a medium bowl, make the Dijon Herb Butter by combining the butter, mustard, parsley and cracked peppercorns.  Mix until combined then place in a crock and chill until ready to use.


Preheat broiler.  Season steaks with salt and pepper.


In a large skillet, slightly cook bacon over medium-high heat until lightly browned, but not crisp.  Wrap 1 slice of bacon around each steak and secure with a wooden toothpick.


Place steaks on a broiler pan or rimmed baking sheet and broil for 5-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness beyond that.  Remove toothpicks and serve with a scoop of Dijon Herb Butter topping each steak.
