Filet mignon in bacon with quail egg - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute with regular chicken eggs. However, they are larger, so you may want to use only the yolk or a smaller amount of the white to avoid overpowering the filet mignon.
If you're looking for a similar flavor profile, pancetta is a good substitute. For a leaner option, consider using prosciutto. You can also use a vegetarian bacon alternative, but be mindful of its cooking time to prevent it from burning.
You can prep the tenderloin by wrapping it in bacon and refrigerating it for up to 24 hours before cooking. However, the potatoes, tomatoes and champignons are best cooked fresh for optimal texture.
Use a meat thermometer! For rare, aim for 120-130°F (49-54°C); medium-rare, 130-140°F (54-60°C); medium, 140-150°F (60-66°C); medium-well, 150-160°F (66-71°C); and well-done, 160°F+ (71°C+). The internal temperature will rise slightly as it rests.
While possible, freezing can affect the texture of the filet mignon. If you must freeze it, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap then foil, or place it in an airtight container. Reheat gently in the oven.
Consider serving this with a green salad, asparagus, roasted root vegetables, or mashed potatoes for a more complete meal. A red wine reduction sauce would also complement the dish nicely.
Omit the potatoes or substitute them with cauliflower florets. Also, ensure that any bacon or bacon substitute used has minimal added sugars.
Adjust the cooking time accordingly to the thickness of the meat. Use a meat thermometer to verify the internal temperature meets your desired doneness. Larger cuts will require more time in the oven.
