Bacon-Wrapped Beef Tenderloin with Balsamic Glaze is a mouth-watering dish that is perfect for any special occasion. This dish is a perfect combination of juicy beef tenderloin, crispy bacon, and tangy balsamic glaze.

To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 beef tenderloin (4-6 oz)
- 2 slices of bacon
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 garlic clove, minced


To start, preheat your oven to 400°F. Season the beef tenderloin with salt and pepper. Wrap the bacon slices around the beef tenderloin, securing them with toothpicks. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef tenderloin on all sides until the bacon is crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the beef tenderloin to a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare.
While the beef tenderloin is cooking, prepare the balsamic glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar, honey, and minced garlic. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes or until the glaze has thickened.
Once the beef tenderloin is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Remove the toothpicks and slice the beef tenderloin into medallions. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the beef tenderloin and serve immediately.
