Best 5 Tenderloin Steaks With Gorgonzola And Herbs And Roasted Garlic And Grape Tomato Pasta With Basil And Arugula Recipes

BEEF TENDERLOIN STEAKS WITH GORGONZOLA

Steps:

• Let meat rest 10 minutes before beginning dinner preparation.
• Place a large, flat griddle or skillet over high heat. When hot, using a pair of tongs and a folded paper towel, wipe cooking surface with oil and place steaks on hot pan. Caramelize the steaks, 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to moderate. Season meat with salt and pepper and cook 4 to 5 minutes longer on each side.
• Preheat broiler to high.
• Arrange steaks on baking sheet. Top each steak with 3 ounces Gorgonzola. Place baking sheet 6 inches from broiler heat just long enough to melt the cheese. Remove meat from the oven and top with slivers of fresh sage. Let meat rest 2 or 3 minutes, then serve immediately.

GARLIC ROASTED TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a small food processor, puree the garlic, pepper, salt, horseradish, and thyme until smooth. Place the tenderloin on a clean work surface and cover evenly with the horseradish paste.
• Place the coated tenderloin on a roasting rack. Roast for 30 minutes or until meat thermometer registers 140 degrees F. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve warm with horseradish cream.
• In a small bowl, mix the horseradish, yogurt, and buttermilk. Cover and place in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

STEAK WITH GORGONZOLA SAUCE

Steps:

• To make the sauce, melt the butter in a pan set over medium-low heat.
• Add the garlic and rosemary and cook until the garlic softens. (Approximately 1-2 minutes)
• Pour in the cream and lemon juice.
• Allow to simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly and coats the back of a spoon.
• Remove from the heat and add the cheese. Stir until the cheese has melted then season to taste with salt and pepper.
• To make the steak, pat the steak dry with paper towels then season generously with salt.
• Heat a large cast iron pan or griddle pan over high heat.
• Add the steaks and cook until well-browned on both sides. Once flipped, add the butter, garlic and rosemary and baste the steak with the butter. I cook my steaks for 2-3 minutes per side until they are medium rare.
• Remove from the pan and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving with the Gorgonzola sauce.

ROASTED TOMATOES WITH GARLIC, GORGONZOLA AND HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Using a teaspoon or grapefruit spoon, remove the seeds from the tomatoes. Place the tomato halves, cut side down, on paper towels to drain, about 5 minutes.
• In a large bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Using clean hands, gently toss the drained tomato halves in the oil mixture until coated. Marinate the tomatoes for 10 minutes.
• In a small bowl mix together the bread crumbs and Gorgonzola cheese.
• Place the marinated tomato halves, cut side up, on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Fill each tomato half with the bread crumb filling. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until slightly softened and the underside of the tomatoes are brown.
• Arrange the cooked tomatoes on a serving platter. Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and serve immediately.

ROASTED TOMATOES WITH GARLIC
