Glazed Beef Tenderloin Recipes

BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH RED WINE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the cippolini onions: Slice off the root end of the cippolinis. Put the cippolinis on a sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes in their skins. Remove from the oven, allow to come to room temperature, peel and reserve.
• For the beef tenderloin: Tie the beef tenderloin and season it generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then the tenderloin. Sear in the skillet on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Arrange the onions, garlic, thyme and carrots around the beef and add 2 tablespoons butter. Transfer to the oven and roast until the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
• Remove the tenderloin from the skillet and let rest. Add 1 cup each of the beef stock and wine to the vegetables, along with the cippolini onions, and bring to a simmer, basting the vegetables occasionally. Cook until the liquid begins to reduce and thicken, about 15 minutes. Remove and reserve the carrots and cippolini onions and strain the liquid into a clean medium saucepan.
• Add the remaining beef stock and red wine to the liquid in the saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until it reaches a glaze-like consistency, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce the heat and, while whisking, add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Whisk until the butter is fully absorbed and the glaze has a nice sheen. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut tenderloin in half and submerge each piece in the red wine glaze, coating well. Remove beef, take off string and slice into 1-inch pieces. Arrange sliced beef on a platter and top with the reserved carrots, cippolini onions and watercress.

HOISIN-GLAZED BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the beef all over with salt and a generous amount of pepper. Add the oil to the skillet and heat until shimmering, then sear the beef on all sides until it is a mahogany brown, about 8 minutes in all (any longer and you're cooking the beef too much, that may have been why my roast came out almost medium, instead of medium-rare).
• Transfer the roast to a shallow roasting pan. Don't clean out the skillet! Leave everything in the skillet as you'll need it for the mushrooms.
• Brush the tenderloin all over with the hoisin sauce, just bathe the thing with the sauce. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 125° for medium-rare, about 30-40 minutes. Transfer the roast to a cutting board and tent loosely with foil. Let it rest while you do the mushrooms.
• Heat the skillet (that you saved) over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and the scallion WHITES, garlic, ginger, the 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and red pepper flakes and cook until soft, about 8 minutes. Add the scallion greens and sherry (or rice wine) and cook until almost all the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes.
• Slice the roast and serve with the mushroom mixture.
• **I think this would also be good with a mixture of different mushrooms, especially wild mushrooms.
