It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

- #110151
under 30 minutes
ingredients
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 clove garlic, minced
salt and ground black pepper
4 slices bacon
4 center-cut filets mignons, each about 1 1/2 inches thick
4 teaspoons olive oil
directions
With fork, beat butter, parsley, lemon zest, garlic, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper together in small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
Wrap 1 bacon slice around each filet, overlapping ends and securing ends to filet with toothpick. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position, place rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 450 degrees F.
Heat 2 tsp oil in medium skillet over high heat until just smoking. Sprinkle filets with salt and pepper. Place 2 filets in skillet and cook, without moving, until browned and nice crust has formed, 2 to 3 minutes.
Using tongs, turn filets and cook on second side, 2 1/2 minutes longer. Hold filets on their sides and crisp bacon slightly all around. Set filets aside on plate. Heat remaining 2 tsp oil in empty skillet and sear remaining 2 filets.
Transfer all 4 seared filets to preheated baking sheet in oven. Roast 4 to 6 minutes for rare, 6 to 8 minutes for medium-rare, or 8 to 10 minutes for medium.
Transfer filets to large plate, tent with foil, and let rest for 5 minutes. Spoon some parsley-lemon butter onto each filet. Serve.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
