BACON WRAPPED PORK FILETS

Bacon wrapped anything always tastes incredible. So it was no surprise that these bacon wrapped pork filets were a knock-out. We baked the filets, added caramelized onions (our favorite) and put together a side of green beans with potato and garlic.

Ingredients
*Pork filets wrapped in bacon
*1 whole white or yellow onion, sliced
*Extra-virgin olive oil
*1 tbsp. butter
*1/4 tbsp. sugar
*1 tbsp. worchestire sauce
*salt, fresh ground pepper

For the potatoes
(recipe courtesy of Martha Rose Shulman, New York Times; http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/26/health/nutrition/26recipehealth.html?emc=eta1)

*3/4 pound green beans, trimmed and broken in half
*1 pound red waxy potatoes, scrubbed and cut in 2-inch wedges
*2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
*2 to 3 large garlic cloves, minced
*Salt and freshly ground pepper

Directions

1. Steam the green beans above 1 inch of boiling water for four to five minutes until tender. Remove from the steamer, and rinse with cold water. Set aside. Add the potatoes, and steam for 10 to 15 minutes until tender.

2. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, nonstick skillet. Add the garlic, and cook for a minute or so until the garlic is fragrant. Stir in the beans and cook, stirring, for three minutes until quite tender and coated with oil (but still bright green).

3. Gently stir in the potatoes, and add salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until they begin to color lightly.
