Beef Tenderloin With Dijon Cream Sauce Recipes

DIJON BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. Add steaks; cook 4-6 minutes on each side or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove from pan; keep warm., In same pan, heat 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir 4-6 minutes or until tender. Stir in stock; bring to a boil. Cook 1-2 minutes or until liquid is reduced by half. Stir in mustard; remove from heat. Cube remaining butter; stir into sauce just until blended. Serve with steaks.

BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH DIJON-CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine oil and vinegar in a cup, rub onto beef. Season generously with salt. Let stand 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, coarsely crush peppercorns and mustard seeds in a blender or food processor or by hand with a mortar and pestle. Roll beef in crushed mixture, pressing it into the surface to coat.
• Oil grill to help prevent sticking. Grill beef, on a covered grill, over medium heat 16 to 24 minutes (depending on thickness and your desired doneness). Turn halfway through cooking. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before slicing. Slice and serve with a few spoonfuls of sauce.
• For the Dijon-Cream Sauce, bring beef broth and whipping cream to a boil in a saucepan. Boil gently until reduced to about 1 cup; sauce will be thick enough to coat a spoon. Remove from heat; stir in butter, a little at a time, until all the butter is melted. Stir in mustard and vinegar, adjusting amounts to taste. Sprinkle with peppercorns and mustard seeds. Makes about 1 cup.

BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH SOUR CREAM-HORSERADISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Mix parsley, butter, and 3 tablespoons Dijon together in a small bowl. Combine green and pink peppercorns with salt in a small bowl.
• Place beef tenderloin on a rack set on top of a heavy, rimmed baking sheet. Rub butter mixture over the tenderloin, coating well. Pat peppercorn mixture into the butter. Cover and refrigerate for 3 to 24 hours.
• Mix sour cream, remaining 3 tablespoons Dijon, and horseradish together in a small container. Cover and chill for 3 hours.
• When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Uncover tenderloin and bake in the preheated oven until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read between 135 and 140 degrees F (57 and 60 degrees C) for medium-rare/medium.
• Transfer to a serving platter and loosely cover with foil. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.
• Serve with the sour cream-horseradish sauce.
