Ingredients
- 2 pounds filet mignon
- 1 cup Kentucky bourbon
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 large white onion, sliced
- 1 large red onion, sliced
- 1 baguette French bread
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 1 bunch flat leaf parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the filet mignon in a bowl. Pour bourbon over steak and marinate for 1 hour. Remove the filet mignon from the bourbon and season with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to a hot saute pan. Sear the filet mignon on all sides, about 1 minute per side. Place the meat in the oven and roast for 15 minutes or until medium rare. Remove the meat from the oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice the filet in half lengthwise. Slice each half into 18 thin slices so you have a total of 36 slices. In another saute pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced white and red onions. Caramelize the onions until they are deep golden brown, about 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool. Slice the baguette into 36 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick slices. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and the horseradish. Place a piece of filet mignon on each slice of bread. Top with some of the caramelized onions. Place a small amount of the horseradish sour cream on top of the onions. Garnish with parsley.

I kept the pieces normal size for dinner. Great flavor! Tender meat!
It was okay, but nothing to write home about.
my new favorite party finger food. my guests were begging for more. 🙂
I am a Kentucky girl with a mean taste for bourbon, so when I saw this recipe I hopped at the chance to serve up some tasty bites drenached in the stuff. I have fallen in love with this recipe over the holiday season. It is so easy to make and the marinade truly makes the meat so tender and savory. I have used Makers Mark and really liked the results. Cheers!
Perfect little starters and easy to make. They were a hit. They are a must at any party!
I made 2 steaks instead of steak bites for my husbands birthday. He was in disbelief that I made such 4-star dinner. I served it with Bourbon sweet potatoes, roasted asparagus and mixed green salad/baby spinach with raspberry vinaigrette. I recommend this for anyone who can follow directions! It was so easy. Thank you Food Network!
I made these as appetizers for a party and they were a hit! Really great taste. The only thing I did differently was I slow cooked the fillet I had and then sliced and served them up on individual breads.
I made these ahead of time and froze them. They were a hit at a NYE party.
This recipe was super easy to make….I made it for a family party and everyone loved it….I cooked he meat for a little longer then suggested as it was still rare after 15min. Other then that it was awesome! Will definately make again.
I wanted to try out the recipe before I attempted to serve it to dinner guests. My husband and I ended up eating this as our dinner. It was very tasty.
