We love this Beef Tenderloin Rumaki. It is easy to make, can be prepped ahead of time and tastes delicious! This rumaki recipe combines succulent beef tenderloin nestled in a sweet red bell pepper, with a water chestnut and a slice of green onion. Then it is wrapped in bacon and basted with a sweet ginger Asian sauce It is a takeoff from the traditional rumaki that uses chicken livers.

    Combine soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ginger, garlic powder, water, honey and ketchup in small saucepan. Simmer over low heat for 10 minutes.
  • 3
    Wrap one piece of red pepper, one water chestnut, one piece of green onion and one piece of beef with half slice of bacon. Secure with toothpick. Repeat until all are wrapped.

    NOTES For added crispiness you can turn on the broiler the last minute of cooking but broilers are unpredictable to keep a close eye on them.
