Seared Beef Tenderloin Filets Recipes

PAN SEARED FILET MIGNON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Start with 1 1/2 thick filets, about 8 oz each, and trimmed well. Remove any silver skin. If you have time, rest at room temperature for 30-60 minutes.
• Pat dry well with paper towels. Season all sides to taste. Just kosher salt and pepper will be fine. I use my homemade All-Purpose Seasoning -7:2:2. Season just before cooking or 1 hour before cooking to prevent the salt from pulling fluid out of the meat.
• In an oven-safe pan (I love my 10-inch cast iron), melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat or use oil. When hot, sear both sides of the filets for 2-3 minutes-sear, flip, sear, and final flip before going to the oven.
• Transfer to the preheated oven. Cook to your desired done temperature minus about 3-5 degrees. For me, medium-rare is always about 8-10 minutes to get an internal temp of about 135°- 140°. If you want rare, check the internal temperature when the meat goes into the oven.
• I suggest checking the internal temperature after 4-5 minutes in the oven to see where you are on the internal temperature. Time can vary due to the exact temperature of the meat to start, the exact temperature of the oven, the pan used, and the thickness of the meat. Rare may take only a few minutes in the oven so beware if you want rare. DO NOT COOK BY TIME ALONE. YOU MUST CHECK THE INTERNAL TEMPERATURE. Times are provided to help planning only.
• Remove from pan and tent lightly with foil on a plate and let rest for 3-5 minutes before cutting. It needs to absorb fluids internally, and the temperature will rise a few more degrees during the rest.

FILET OF BEEF WITH MUSTARD MAYO HORSERADISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil.
• Pat the entire tenderloin dry with paper towels and brush it all over (top and bottom) with the butter. Sprinkle the tenderloin all over with 4 teaspoons salt and 2 teaspoons pepper. It will seem like a lot but trust me, it's important.
• Place the tenderloin on the prepared sheet pan and roast it for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the end of the filet registers 130 degrees F for medium rare. Remove from the oven, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and allow to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes. Discard the foil and allow to sit at room temperature.
• Meanwhile, for the sauce, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, mustards, horseradish, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Remove the strings and slice the filet between 1/4 and 1/2 inch thick, sprinkle with salt, and place on a platter with a garnish of parsley. Serve warm, at room temperature, or cold with the sauce on the side.

Heat an ovenproof sauté pan over medium high heat for 5 minutes. SEAR filets in oil on one side for 4-5 minutes. Turn them over, place the pan in the oven, and roast to desired doneness: (RARE SEAR 5 MINUTES, ROAST 5 MINUTES REST 5 MINUTES,) (MEDIUM RARE: SEAR 5 MINUTES, ROAST 7 MINUTES, REST 5 MINUTES) (MEDIUM: SEAR 5 MINUTES, ROAST 9 MINUTES, REST5 MINUTES). Remove pan from the oven, transfer filets to a plate, tent with foil and let rest 5 minutes before serving. SERVE with Béarnaise sauce. Béarnaise SAUCE: BRING vinegar, wine, shallots and tarragon to a boil in a small saucepan over medium high heat. Boil until most of the liquid evaporates , about 5 minutes. OFF heat, add water then whisk in egg yolks until frothy. GRADUALLY drizzle in butter, whisking constantly to incorporate. Sauce should be thick, but thin it with a little water if needed. If it is too thin, return it to low heat and whisk constantly until thickened. STRAIN sauce through a medium mesh strainer into a heatproof cup. Season with lemon juice, salt, white pepper, and cayenne. Serve immediately.

SEARED BEEF TENDERLOIN FILETS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees with the rack in the middle of oven.
• 2. Season the tenderloin filets with salt and pepper.
• 3. You need to use an oven proof frying pan for this recipe. (I use my cast iron skillet) Get you pan very hot. Oil the pan and place the filets on the hot pan.(do not over crowd the pan. Do them in batches if need be or they will not get that professional looking "crust" to them. Once in pan, DO NOT MOVE THEM, TURN THEM, OR PLAY WITH THEM. The idea is to get a nice "crust" on the filet. Let them cook in the hot pan for 5 minutes. Then turn them over ( to reveal a beautiful crust) Place the whole pan in the preheated oven right away. Finish cooking them in the oven until desired done-ness. (again, I never cook tenderloin to a well done. It isnt a cut that fairs well with well done. Medium rare is the way to go in my book!) :)
• 4. Rare: sear 5 minutes, Roast 5 minutes Medium-rare: Sear 5 minutes, Roast 7 minutes Medium: Sear 5 minutes, Roast 9 minutes.
