HORSERADISH CRUSTED BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH HORSERADISH CREAM
Chateaubriand is wonderful for that special day! Saw this on Cook's Illustrated. I did tweak a bit. If using dried herbs use about 2 tablespoons dried herbs of choice not 1/2 cup. But I do suggest the fresh over dried every time. Also make sure your dried herbs are very fresh and aromatic.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality beef tenderloin: Look for a tenderloin that is deep red in color, with fine marbling throughout. Avoid any tenderloins that are pale or have large pockets of fat.
- Trim the tenderloin: Use a sharp knife to trim away any excess fat or silver skin from the tenderloin. This will help the tenderloin cook evenly and prevent it from drying out.
- Season the tenderloin: Season the tenderloin liberally with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs. You can also add a rub or marinade to the tenderloin for extra flavor.
- Sear the tenderloin: Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet for a few minutes per side. This will create a crust on the outside of the tenderloin and help to lock in the juices.
- Roast the tenderloin: Transfer the seared tenderloin to a roasting pan and roast in a preheated oven until it reaches your desired doneness. The cook time will vary depending on the size and thickness of the tenderloin, but a good rule of thumb is to cook it for 10-12 minutes per pound for medium-rare.
- Rest the tenderloin: Once the tenderloin is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the tenderloin, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Beef tenderloin is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be prepared in a variety of ways. Whether you are grilling, roasting, or pan-searing, there are many ways to enjoy this tender and flavorful cut of beef. With a little practice, you can easily prepare a delicious beef tenderloin dinner that will impress your family and friends.
