3 pounds (1.4 kilos) beef tenderloin

¼ pound (110 grams) smoked bacon, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoons honey

• Let the meat sit in room temperature for at least one hour before starting to cook. Preheat the oven to 400°F/200°C.

• Season the meat generously with salt and pepper. In a hot skillet, heat neutral oil until almost smoking, and sear the meat until golden brown on all sides. Set aside.

• In a large bowl, combine garlic olive oil, melted butter, sage, oregano and half of the honey, and mix well. Fold in the vegetables until well coated with marinade. Transfer to a large oven-proof dish.
