Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 pound filet
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 cup Sercial Madeira
1 1/2 cups beef broth
2 teaspoons arrowroot dissolved in 1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the filet with salt and pepper. To a heated pan add the oil, salt and pepper. Brown the meat on all sides. Place into a 350 degrees F. oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the meat thermometer registers 120 degrees F. to 125 degrees F. (for rare). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes, covered loosely with foil.
  • Make the sauce while the beef is resting. Pour off the fat from the pan, add the Madeira, and boil it, scraping up the brown bits, until it is reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Add the broth and boil the mixture, stirring for 1 minute. Stir the arrowroot mixture, add it to the skillet, whisking, and simmer the sauce, whisking, for 1 minute.

Categories     Beef

Yield 8 people

Number Of Ingredients 18

For Beef:
2 TBP finely chopped garlic
1/4 cup finely chopped shallot
2 TBP finely chopped thyme
1 1/2 tsp finely chopped rosemary
1 TBP extra-virgin olive oil
2 TBP kosher salt
1 (4- to 4 1/2-lb) trimmed beef tenderloin roast, tied
For Tomato Madeira Confit:
8 large garlic cloves
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 (14-oz) cans diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 tsp finely chopped thyme
1/2 tsp finely chopped rosemary
1/2 California or 1 Turkish bay leaf
1/4 tsp sugar
1 cup Madeira (preferably Verdelho), divided
1/4 cup water

Steps:

  • Marinate Beef: Stir together garlic, shallot, herbs, oil, kosher salt, and 2 tsp pepper, then rub all over beef. Marinate in a sealed large bag, chilled, 1 day. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before roasting. Make Confit: Cook garlic in oil in a large heavy skillet over med-low heat, turning occasionally, until golden, 10-15 minutes. Add tomatoes, thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, sugar, 1/4 tsp table salt, 1/8 tsp pepper, and 1/2 cup Madeira and briskly simmer, stirring frequently and crushing tomatoes with a heatproof rubber spatula, until tomatoes start to break down and oil separates slightly, about 1 hour. Mash garlic into tomatoes with spatula, then stir in 1/4 cup Madeira. Discard bay leaf. Roast Beef: Preheat oven to 350F with rack in middle. Roast beef in a 17- by 11-inch shallow heavy baking pan until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of thickest part of meat registers 120F, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 15 to 20 minutes (temperature of meat will rise to about 130F, for med-rare). Meanwhile, add water and remaining 1/4 cup Madeira to baking pan and deglaze over med-low heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Stir into tomato confit. Cut off and discard string from beef, then cut meat into 1/2-inch thick slices. Serve with confit.

Tips:

  • To ensure the beef is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The ideal temperature for medium-rare is 135°F (57°C).
  • If you don't have Madeira wine, you can substitute it with dry sherry or red wine.
  • For a richer flavor, use homemade beef stock instead of water in the sauce.
  • If you don't have time to make the confit, you can use store-bought sun-dried tomatoes.
  • Serve the beef with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a green salad.

Conclusion:

Herbed Fillet of Beef with Tomato Madeira Confit is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and complex. The confit adds a sweet and tangy flavor that complements the beef perfectly. This dish is sure to impress your guests, and it's easier to make than you might think.
