Best 3 Roast Beef Tenderloin With Caesar Crust Recipes

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Combine porcini mushrooms and water in a bowl; soak until soft, 1 hour. Drain and reserve liquid. Dice and set mushrooms and reserved liquid aside.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season beef generously with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Place beef in the skillet; cook until brown on all sides, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
• Reduce heat to medium and stir in 1 tablespoon butter, shallots, and a pinch of salt; cook until shallots are soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Pour tarragon vinegar into the skillet and bring to a boil while scraping any browned bits off of the bottom. Stir until liquid is reduced by half, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Pour in veal stock, cream, 1/2 cup reserved mushroom liquid, mushrooms, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Return beef to the skillet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until meat is medium rare, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Transfer meat to a plate and loosely tent with foil. Set skillet over high heat and bring pan juices to a boil.
• Stir in 1 tablespoon butter and tarragon; season with salt and pepper to taste. Return tenderloin and any accumulated juices to skillet and serve.

PEPPERCORN-CRUSTED BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Prepare beef Heat oven to 475°F. Let tenderloin rest at room temperature 1 hour. Pat meat with paper towels to dry, then lightly coat all over with oil. Sprinkle evenly with the salt and ground peppercorns, gently pressing to help them adhere.
• Sear beef Set a cast-iron griddle (or large roasting pan) over two burners and heat over high until hot. Carefully rub griddle lightly with oil (if using a roasting pan, add enough oil to barely coat the bottom of the pan) and heat until hot but not smoking, then place the tenderloin on the griddle and sear on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Use tongs to transfer beef to a rack set in a rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part registers 125°F for medium-rare, 20 to 30 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes.
• Carve and serve Transfer tenderloin to a carving board and slice to desired thickness (about 1/2 inch is a nice size) before serving.
• Ingredients
• Green peppercorns have a subtle fruity flavor, but black peppercorns can be substituted. Or you can coat the tenderloin evenly with a coating of finely chopped fresh horseradish, minced garlic, or chopped sturdy fresh herbs such as rosemary and thyme. These ingredients will scorch over high heat, so rub them on after the meat is seared, but before it goes into the oven (let cool briefly, or the meat will be too hot to handle).

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH CAESAR CRUST

Steps:

• Season tenderloin lightly with salt and pepper. Wrap in plastic; refrigerate overnight.
• Uncover tenderloin; let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 400°F Set a rack inside a rimmed baking sheet. Transfer tenderloin to rack. Pulse 4 teaspoons black pepper and remaining ingredients in a small food processor until well blended. Generously and evenly spread and pack Parmesan mixture around tenderloin.
• Roast until crust is golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of tenderloin registers 110°F-115°F for rare and 120°F-125°F for medium-rare, 30-40 minutes.
• Transfer to a carving board. Let rest for 20 minutes. Cut into 1/2"-thick slices, taking care not to lose too much of the delicate crust.
