Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (4 pound) trimmed beef tenderloin
4 cloves garlic
¾ (8 ounce) jar Dijon mustard
1 ripe avocado, peeled and cubed
¼ cup steak seasoning

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a roasting pan with a sheet of aluminum foil.
  • Preheat a large skillet over high heat. Pour in the oil, and heat until smoking. Sear the tenderloin roast in the hot oil until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove to the roasting pan when done. While the roast is searing, place the garlic, mustard, avocado, and steak seasoning into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Coat the seared roast all over with the avocado mixture.
  • Roast in preheated oven until the tenderloin has reached your desired degree of doneness, about 40 minutes for medium.

Tips:

  • For the best results, choose a tenderloin that is at least 1 1/2 inches thick. This will ensure that the steak cooks evenly and remains juicy.
  • To make sure the steak is cooked to your desired doneness, use a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the steak, away from any bones or fat. The steak is rare at 125°F, medium-rare at 135°F, medium at 145°F, and well-done at 160°F.
  • Let the steak rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
  • Dijon mustard is a key ingredient in this recipe. It adds a tangy, savory flavor to the steak. If you don't have Dijon mustard, you can substitute another type of mustard, such as yellow or brown mustard.
  • Fresh herbs, such as thyme and rosemary, add a delicious flavor to the steak. If you don't have fresh herbs, you can substitute dried herbs. However, fresh herbs will give the steak a more vibrant flavor.

Conclusion:

This Dijon beef tenderloin is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tenderloin is cooked to perfection and the Dijon mustard sauce is rich and flavorful. This dish is sure to impress your guests.
