Time 1h10m

Yield 12 servings.

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, chopped
4 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 garlic cloves, minced, divided
2 packages (10 ounces each) fresh spinach leaves
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 beef tenderloin roast (3-1/2 pounds)
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper

Steps:

  • In a large nonstick skillet, saute mushrooms and onions in 1 tablespoon oil until mushrooms are tender. Add half of the garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Add spinach, 1/2 teaspoon salt and cayenne. Cook until the spinach is wilted. Remove from the heat; set aside., Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of tenderloin to within 3/4 in. of bottom. Open so meat lies flat. Spread with spinach stuffing. Fold one side of meat over stuffing; tie several times with kitchen string. Rub remaining oil over beef. Combine the onion powder, pepper and remaining garlic and salt; rub over beef. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan., Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 40-55 minutes or until a thermometer reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Let stand for 10 minutes. Remove string before slicing.

I'm not a huge fan of spinach, but I really enjoyed this dish. The spinach was cooked perfectly and didn't overpower the beef. The bacon added a nice salty touch. Overall, I really enjoyed this recipe.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll try a simpler beef tenderloin recipe next time.
