Cooking Instructions:
To Make Bison Filet:1. Preheat oven to 450°F

3. Sear remaining steaks in remaining 1½ tablespoons oil in the same manner. When steaks are cool enough to handle, sprinkle with rosemary, salt and pepper to taste.
4. Roast steaks in middle of oven, 8 minutes for medium-rare. Turn oven down to 350°F. Transfer steaks to platter and keep warm.
To Make Italian Green Beans and Grape Tomatoes:
1. Cook beans in a 6-quart pot of boiling water, uncovered, until tender, 4-6 minutes.
2. Drain in a colander then transfer to a large bowl. Toss with oil, parmesan cheese, olives, and tomatoes. Season with pepper to taste.
