Betty's Tarragon Beef Tenderloin Filets
Instructions
In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Tarragon Beef Tenderloin Filets.  These are bacon-wrapped filets of beef tenderloin that are marinated in a flavorful sauce and then broiled in an oven to desired doneness.  You may grill them on an outdoor grill or saut them in a saucepandelicious done in any of these ways!
Ingredients:
Place (2) 6-oz. bacon-wrapped beef tenderloin filets in a heavy duty, gallon-sized zip-lock plastic bag.  Add  cup apple juice, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of fresh tarragon.  Seal the bag tightly and work the liquid into the filets the best you can.  Set the bag in a small dish and  marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.  Remove beef tenderloin filets from bag and place on a broiler pan (prepared with foil).  Broil about 6 inches from heat, with oven door slightly open about 8 minutes on each side, or to desired degree of doneness.  Place on a nice platter and garnish with sprigs of tarragon, if desired.  I served these Tarragon Beef Filets with Tomato and Lettuce Salad with Green Goddess Dressing, Browned Butter Mashed Potatoes, Ale-9-1 Cake with Ale-8-1 Frostingplus a glass of iced tea!  It is a great combination of flavors and textures.  I hope you enjoy the meal!  --Betty
