Categories     main-dish

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 tablespoons butter
1 shallot, diced
2/3 cup dry sherry wine
1/4 cup dried dates, pitted and chopped
1/4 cup dried cranberries
1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon minced fresh sage
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
One 2- to 3-pound center-cut beef tenderloin, trimmed and butterflied (see Cook's Note)
1/3 cup Marcona almonds, crushed
2 tablespoons minced chives
Store-bought horseradish sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
  • Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter, add the shallot and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the sherry, dates, cranberries, thyme and sage and simmer until just dry, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Season the inside of the tenderloin with salt and pepper. Spread an even layer of the fruit and herb mixture over it, leaving about 1/2 inch of tenderloin around the edges. Top with a layer of the almonds. Roll tightly and tie with at least 4 pieces of butcher's twine (easier to cut and portion!).
  • Place the loin on a wire-racked baking sheet and season the outside with salt and pepper. Cook until the center of the tenderloin registers 120 to 125 degrees F, about 2 hours.
  • In a large skillet, heat the remaining 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat until just foaming. Place the loin in the skillet and sear on all sides until evenly crusty and brown, about 3 minutes a side. Transfer to a cutting board and slice. Garnish with minced chives and serve with horseradish sauce.

SPINACH-STUFFED BEEF TENDERLOIN



Spinach-Stuffed Beef Tenderloin image

Makes 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons brandy
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 ounces cream cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons steak seasoning, divided
1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
1 (6 1/2-pound) whole beef tenderloin, trimmed
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring frequently, for 10 minutes or until very tender. Add brandy, stirring until liquid is evaporated. Stir in spinach; cook for 2 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, cream cheese, 1/2 teaspoon steak seasoning, and seasoned salt until cheeses have melted. Remove from heat. Begin butterflying tenderloin by placing beef lengthwise on a cutting board, with one short end closest to you. Holding your knife parallel to the bottom of the tenderloin, make a lengthwise cut along the bottom-third of one long side, cutting to within 1/2 inch of other long side. Open meat at incision as if you were opening a book. Again holding your knife parallel to the cutting board with the blade facing the thicker side, make another lengthwise cut into the thicker side of the tenderloin, cutting to within 1/2 inch of opposite side. Open meat again at new incision. Flatten meat to an even thickness, if necessary. Spread spinach mixture to within 1/2 inch of edges, and roll up, jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie tenderloin together with heavy butcher's twine at 1-inch intervals. Sprinkle remaining 1 teaspoon steak seasoning onto tenderloin. Preheat oven to 400°. In an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold beef, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add tenderloin, and cook 6 to 8 minutes or until browned on all sides. Transfer skillet to oven, and bake for 55 to 65 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 145° or desired degree of doneness. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Arrange the roast in a roasting pan seam side down. Pour off all but film of fat from skillet and reserve the skillet. (again, dont wash it) Drape bacon over meat. Roast until thermometer inserted horizontally through end of roast into meat registers 130 degrees. (for rare) About 35 minutes. If you like it less rare, roast for 40-45 minutes. This is not a cut of meat you want well done. Take out of roasting pan, and cover with foil to keep it warm. Dont empty the roasting pan.
  • 6. FOR THE SAUCE; Degrease the roasting pan juices and add 1/2 cup of beef stock to the drippings. Keep all of the bits in there, its where the flavor comes from.Bring to a boil, scraping up all the bits. Put this in your reserved skillet. Add 1/2 cup of beef stock to the skillet and boil until reduced to a thick syrup. Scrape any bits,about 8 minutes. Add another 1/2 cup of stock and boil until syrupy,about 3 minutes. Add drippings accumulated form meat, brandy,mustard,rosemary and remaining 3/4 cup stock and boil until thickened, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add 1 tablespoon of butter at a time.

Shaker Herb-Marinated, Spinach-Stuffed Whole Beef Tenderloin image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 32

1 (3 to 5 pound) beef tenderloin, butt-end or tail-end cut
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 cup cream sherry
2 tablespoons steak seasoning (recommended: McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning)
1/2 cup chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
3 sprigs fresh rosemary leaves
3 sprigs fresh thyme leaves
Spinach Stuffing, recipe follows
Serving Suggestion: Marinated and roasted red and yellow peppers, and green salad with Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette, recipe follows
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound frozen chopped spinach
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 to 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1/2 cup sweet sherry
1 cup fresh bread crumbs
1/2 cup grated Romano cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 cup Dijon mustard
1/3 gallon balsamic vinegar
1/4 gallon white vinegar
1 1/2 gallons 10 percent salad oil
1/4 cup dried basil
1 1/2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/4 gallon maple syrup

Steps:

  • Trim and remove all silver skin and fat from the beef. Rub meat with the olive oil and then splash with sherry. Continuing to rub beef, then sprinkle the steak seasoning all over the meat. Cover beef on all sides with the fresh herbs, rubbing to coat.
  • Place meat in a shallow pan and allow to rest for 30 minutes. Turn and pat beef with the marinade that has collected in the pan. Allow to rest for an additional 30 minutes.
  • Heat the grill to 500 degrees F.
  • With an 8-inch knife, carefully pierce the meat in the center of 1 end. Cut a hole through that side as far into the fillet as the knife will allow. Turn to the other end and repeat this process, until the hole extends all the way through the fillet. Open the hole like a tunnel, being careful not to break through to the outside of the fillet. Using only small amounts at a time, stuff the cooled Spinach Stuffing into the opening from 1 end to the other.
  • Reduce grill temperature to 400 degrees F.
  • Place the stuffed beef tenderloin on the grill and, turning every 5 to 7 minutes to avoid burning the herbs, cook to an internal temperature of 110 to 120 degrees F. Cooking time for a medium-rare tenderloin is approximately 20 minutes.
  • Once the tenderloin is cooked to your liking and removed from the grill, allow to rest for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2 to 1-inch medallions. If desired, serve on a bed of roasted marinated red and yellow peppers with a green salad of your choice tossed in Maple Balsamic Vinaigrette.
  • Spinach Stuffing:
  • Heat oil in a saute pan over high heat. Add frozen spinach, garlic, and red pepper flakes, and saute over high heat until the spinach has lost its moisture and is heated through, approximately 3 to 5 minutes. Add sherry and cook for 2 minutes. Add bread crumbs and Romano cheese. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until the ingredients combine into a soft-textured stuffing. If the stuffing seems too dry, add some additional sherry. If the stuffing seems too wet, add more bread crumbs.
  • Remove from heat and add salt and pepper, to taste. Add all fresh herbs and mix gently. Allow to cool before stuffing into tenderloin.
  • Mix the mustard with the vinegars. Add the oil and combine well. Add all the dry seasonings and mix together. Add the maple syrup and stir until combined.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Choose High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the final dish. Use fresh, flavorful ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't Overcook the Beef: Beef tenderloin is a delicate cut of meat that can easily become overcooked. Cook it to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare or 145°F (63°C) for medium.
  • Let the Beef Rest: After cooking, let the beef rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • Use Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, and rosemary, can add a lot of flavor to the dish. Use them sparingly, as they can easily overpower the other ingredients.
