BACON-WRAPPED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Trim beef tenderloin to a thickness of 2 1/2 inches.
• Combine rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Rub and press mixture evenly over all sides of the beef.
• Place a long sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Arrange bacon slices crosswise on the wrap, slightly overlapping each piece to form a rectangle. Place the seasoned tenderloin over the bacon slices. Wrap the bacon slices up around the beef and secure with toothpicks. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove beef from the refrigerator; remove and discard plastic wrap.
• Heat oil in a roasting pan over 2 burners set to medium heat. Place beef, seam-side down, in the roasting pan. Cook until bacon begins to brown, turning to brown on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes.
