– 4-5 pound beef tenderloin, trimmed
– 1 tablespoon salt
– 1 teaspoon black pepper
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 4 tablespoons butter, softened
– 2 teaspoons minced garlic
– 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard or horseradish
Instructions:
1. Prep the Beef:
– Season the beef tenderloin with salt and pepper.
– Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
2. Sear the Beef:
– Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat.
– Sear the beef tenderloin on all sides until a nice brown crust forms. This should take about 3-5 minutes per side.
3. Add the Butter Mixture:
– In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard or horseradish.
– Spread this mixture over the seared beef tenderloin.
4. Roast in the Oven:
– Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
– Place the skillet with the beef tenderloin in the preheated oven.
– Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness.
– Medium-rare: 130°F (54°C)
– Medium: 140°F (60°C)
– Medium-well: 150°F (65°C)
5. Rest the Beef:
– Remove the beef from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.
6. Serve:
– Slice the beef tenderloin and serve immediately. You can serve it with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple green salad.
