GARLICKY GRILLED BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH HERBS
This is a recipe I cooked for my birthday. It was my very first tenderloin on the grill. The recipe was VERY easy. And it got rave reviews at the party. I actually scaled the recipe down for just 1 lb of tenderloin, but I'm including the whole recipe here. I got the recipe online from Food & Wine. I believe they used fresh herbs in the original recipe. I didn't have any fresh on hand, but I had a Ton of dried, so I used that and it was still wonderful. I have changed the recipe to reflect my use of dried herbs.

Tips:
- Choose a tenderloin steak that is at least 1 1/2 inches thick. This will ensure that the steak cooks evenly and stays juicy.
- Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before cooking the steak. This will help to sear the outside of the steak and keep the juices inside.
- Cook the steak for 8-10 minutes per side, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 155 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the cooked steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Grilled beef tenderloin is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. By following these tips, you can cook a tenderloin steak that is cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. So fire up your grill and get cooking!
