Tender, juicy, savory and unforgettable roast beef tenderloin.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 whole beef tenderloin (about 23 lbs)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat tenderloin dry, tie with kitchen twine if needed for even shape.
  2. Rub beef with olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper.
  3. Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Transfer to baking tray and roast for 20–25 minutes for medium doneness. Use a thermometer for accuracy (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).
  4. While resting the meat, make the sauce. Melt butter in a pan, whisk in flour, cook 1 minute. Gradually add beef broth, whisking constantly until smooth.
  5. Stir in cream, mustard, onion and garlic powder. Simmer 5–7 minutes until thick. Finish with parsley.
  6. Slice tenderloin and pour warm sauce generously over the top before serving.

Notes

  • Let beef rest at least 10 minutes before slicing to lock in juices.
  • Use fresh herbs for elevated flavor and aroma.
  • Sauce can be made ahead and reheated gently before serving.
