How to cook deliciously - Stuffed Beef Tenderloin

1. Stage

In a large skillet, saute the onion, celery and mushrooms in butter until vegetables are tender.

2. Stage

Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, salt, pepper, basil and parsley. Add onion mixture and mix well.

3. Stage

Make a lengthwise cut three-fourths of the way through the tenderloin. Lightly place stuffing in the pocket; close with toothpicks. Place bacon strips diagonally across the top, covering the picks and pocket.

4. Stage

Place meat, bacon side up, in a shallow roasting pan. Insert thermometer into meat, not stuffing. Bake, uncovered, at 350° until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, the thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove from oven; let stand for 15 minutes. Remove toothpicks.
