Herb Rubbed Roasted Tenderloin Of Beef Recipes

GARLIC HERB BUTTER BEEF TENDERLOIN ROAST

Steps:

• Remove the beef tenderloin roast from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour before roasting. Trim the silver skin (a thin, white layer that should be removed before cooking) and tie the beef tenderloin. If one end is more tapered than the other, bend it under the roast and secure it when tying so the roast is an even thickness throughout.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Pat the beef tenderloin dry and season by sprinkling with salt and pepper on all sides. Prepare the garlic herb butter by combining the butter, garlic, rosemary, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper in a bowl and mashing with a fork. Divide in half, setting part of the garlic herb butter aside in a separate bowl for after the roast is done cooking.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet or heavy pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, place the roast into the skillet and let it sear on each of three sides for 2-3 minutes. Turn the roast over with tongs to the final side, then turn off the heat and rub the beef tenderloin all over with half of the garlic herb butter mixture.
• Transfer the beef tenderloin to the oven in the skillet it was seared in, or place in a roasting pan first if you don't have an oven-safe skillet.
• Cook for 25-35 minutes, depending on the size of your roast, until an oven-safe meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin registers between 135 and 140 degrees F for medium doneness. The temperature of the meat will continue to rise another 5 degrees after it is removed from the oven while it is resting before slicing.
• While the meat cooks, combine all of the ingredients for the horseradish sauce in a bowl and keep in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
• Remove the beef tenderloin roast from the oven and slather with the reserved garlic herb butter mixture, then let the meat rest 10 minutes before slicing.
• Serve with horseradish sauce, if desired.

HERBED AND SPICED ROASTED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, garlic, shallot, orange zest, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and cloves. Run machine while adding oil; process until smooth. Spread mixture evenly over all sides of tenderloins. Place beef in a large glass baking dish. Cover with foil, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place tenderloins on a rack in a large roasting pan.
• Roast beef in preheated oven until meat thermometer registers 140 degrees when inserted into center of beef, about 35 minutes. Remove from oven, and cover loosely with foil; let stand for 10 minutes. Slice beef, and serve.

HERB CRUSTED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Tie the beef with butcher's string and rub with the olive oil. Combine the rosemary, parsley, thyme, and garlic and pat the mixture on the beef. Season the beef with salt and pepper.
• Over high heat sear the beef in an ovenproof skillet, turning to brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Place the skillet directly into the oven and roast the beef for 20 to 25 minutes. Let the beef rest for 10 minutes before removing the string and slicing.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line the bottom and sides of an 8 by 8 by 2-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Rub the parchment paper with butter and a little bit of the garlic. Lay the potatoes in overlapping rows to cover the bottom of the parchment paper. Sprinkle with some of the cheese and garlic. Repeat the layering process until all the potatoes, cheese and garlic have been used.
• Whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes. Press down on the potatoes to distribute the egg mixture. Cover the dish with parchment paper and bake for 1 1/2 hours. (Remove the parchment paper from the top for the last 20 minutes to brown the top).
• Allow the flan to rest for at least 15 minutes before turning out of the pan and cutting into serving sizes. This dish is best made a day ahead, then portioned and reheated in 400 degree F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a medium pot heat the olive oil over medium-high heat, add the onions, and cook for 7 minutes until soft, stirring frequently. Stir in the sugar and salt, and cook for a further 7 minutes. Add the port and vinegar, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes or until thickened. Stir in the thyme. Keeps for 1 week stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container

GRILLED BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH HERB-GARLIC-PEPPER COATING

Steps:

• Prepare beef: Trim off excess fat with a sharp knife. Fold thin tip end under to approximate the thickness of the rest of the roast. Tie with butcher's twine, then keep tying the roast with twine every 11/2 to 2 inches (to help the roast keep its shape). Snip silverskin with scissors to keep roast from bowing during cooking. Then, mix oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, pepper and salt; rub over roast to coat. Set meat aside.
• Either build a charcoal fire in half the grill or turn all gas burners on high for 10 minutes. Lubricate grate with an oil-soaked rag using tongs. Place beef on hot rack and close lid; grill until well-seared, about 5 minutes. Turn meat and close lid; grill until well-seared on second side, another 5 minutes.
• Move meat to the charcoal grill's cool side, or turn off burner directly underneath the meat and turn remaining one or two burners (depending on grill style) to medium. Cook until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest section registers 130 degrees for rosy pink, 45 to 60 minutes, depending on tenderloin size and grill. Let meat rest 15 minutes before carving.
