Description

Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Filet Mignon is perfectly seared with crispy bacon and juicy steak. Whip up a filet mignon in the air fryer in a matter of minutes!

Ingredients 

  • 5 prime beef filets
  • 2 tablespoon English mustard
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt flakes
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried minced onions
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 pound thick cut bacon, 5 slices

Instructions

  • Brush filets with English mustard on all sides.
  • In a small bowl or ramekin, combine salt, pepper, onion powder, minced onion, and paprika. Season top and bottom sides of the filets with the seasoning mix and let rest for 15 minutes.
  • While the steak is resting, place toothpicks in a bowl of water to soak. 
  • Preheat the air fryer to 370* for 5 minutes. 
  • Wrap steaks with bacon. Use 1-2 slices depending on the thickness of the steak. Secure the ends of the bacon with a toothpick. 
  • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray. Add the steak to the air fryer basket—Cook for 12 minutes total. Be sure to stop halfway through cooking and flip the steaks over. ***We cooked the steaks to medium-rare (145*)  using these cooking times. Adjust cooking time for the desired temp. Add 1 minute for medium, 2 minutes for medium-well. 
  • Allow steak to rest on a wooden cutting board for 5-10 minutes before serving.
  • Plate, serve, and enjoy!
