Stuffed Filet Mignon Bites

By: MattR 
"Bite-sized cuts of filet mignon are stuffed with jalapeno-spiked cream cheese, wrapped in bacon, and grilled. This dish is very popular with our tailgating crowd at football games. Its very easy to prepare and only takes a few minutes to grill."

Original Recipe Yield 20 bites
 

Ingredients

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

Directions

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
  4. 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.
  5. Cook on preheated grill until steak is no longer pink, about 4 minutes per side.
