Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 (6 ounce) filet mignon steaks
1 (16 ounce) bottle Italian dressing
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
¼ cup minced jalapeno pepper
20 slices thinly sliced bacon

Steps:

  • Slice the steaks into 1/2-inch wide strips. Pound the strips to about half their original thickness. Place the steak in a bowl; pour the Italian dressing over the meat; allow to marinate at least 2 hours.
  • Mix together the cream cheese and jalapeno pepper in a bowl; set aside. Remove the strips from the marinade and lay out on a flat surface. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture on each strip.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
  • Remove the strips from the marinade and lay on a flat surface. Spread about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture on each strip. Fold the meat around the cream cheese mixture to form a ball. Wrap each ball with a slice of bacon. Secure bacon with water-soaked toothpicks or metal skewers.
  • Cook on preheated grill until steak is no longer pink, about 4 minutes per side.

These were a lot of work to make and they didn't turn out very good. I wouldn't recommend this recipe.

I had a hard time finding filet mignon at my local grocery store. I ended up using a different cut of beef and it didn't turn out as well.

The bites were a bit dry. I think I overcooked them. Next time I'll cook them for a shorter amount of time.

These were a bit too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less salt in the stuffing.

I used a different type of cheese than the recipe called for and it turned out great. Feel free to experiment with different flavors.

I'm not a big fan of horseradish, so I omitted it from the sauce. The bites were still delicious.

I was a bit skeptical about this recipe, but I'm so glad I tried it. The bites were so flavorful and juicy, and the horseradish sauce was the perfect complement.

I made these for dinner last night and they were delicious! The meat was so tender and juicy, and the stuffing was flavorful and cheesy. I served them with mashed potatoes and roasted vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.
