Steps:

• Make the steak: Mix the cocoa powder, both paprikas, brown sugar, cayenne and 2 teaspoons salt; rub on the steak and bring to room temperature, 30 minutes. Make the gravy: Cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring, until crisp, about 5 minutes. Remove to paper towels with a slotted spoon; set aside. Add the leek to the drippings and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat.

Add the chicken broth and bay leaves. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook until the mixture is reduced by one-quarter, about 8 minutes. Whisk in the heavy cream and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the gravy coats a spoon, about 7 minutes. Stir in the butter, reserved bacon and parsley; season with salt and pepper. Keep warm. Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat, about 3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon butter; when it melts, add the steak and sear until a dark crust forms, about 8 minutes per side.

BACON WRAPPED FILET WITH BLEU CHEESE BUTTER. RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Begin by preheating a cast iron skillet on high heat. While the pan is heating, wrap each filet with bacon and secure with a toothpick. Dry off both sides of the filets and season with a heavy pinch of salt and pepper. The pan is ready to cook when you can barely hold a hand 3" above the surface for more than a few seconds. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and allow to melt. Sear the steaks on one side for 1-2 minutes (watch for burning). Flip the steaks and sear for another 1-2 minutes. This takes extra effort, but I think it's worth it: hold each steak with a pair of tongs to sear the bacon on the edge of the steak. When done, turn off the heat (but keep the pan on the burner) and tent the pan with aluminum foil. Meanwhile, mash together the butter and blue cheese in a small bowl. Add a big pinch of pepper. After the steaks have been resting in the pan for 5-7 minutes, move them to a plate and recover with foil. Turn the heat back on the pan and sear the asparagus very quickly, 3 minutes should produce char spots and a perfect crisp-tender texture. Remove the toothpicks, and serve the steaks and asparagus spears topped with dollops of the bleu cheese butter.
