Beeftenderloinwithcreamygorgonzolasauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the tenderloin: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Remove the meat from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Dry the meat well and sprinkle with the salt. Add the oil to the pan along with the rosemary sprigs. Add the meat and sear until deep golden brown all around, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the meat to a rimmed baking sheet fitted with a baking rack. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads 125 degrees F, 35 to 50 minutes. Allow the meat to rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
• For the peperonata: Meanwhile, place the skillet that you seared the meat in over medium heat. Add the garlic and anchovy paste and cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, to bring out the flavors, for 1 minute. Add the onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add the peppers and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and the peppers are soft and beginning to brown, about 6 minutes. Stir in the olives, vinegar, capers and oregano. Remove from the heat.
• Spoon the peperonata onto a platter. Slice the tenderloin and shingle it around the platter. Sprinkle the meat with the coarse salt if using and drizzle with any juices.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat. Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper on both sides. Place the fillets into the skillet and sear until golden brown. Turn the fillets over and continue cooking for 4 to 5 minutes for medium-rare doneness. Remove the fillets to a plate. Remove all but 1 1/2 tablespoons of the fat in the skillet and return to high heat. Add the mushrooms and shallots, and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown and their liquid has evaporated. Add the red wine and cook until reduced by half. Add the stock and cook until reduced by half. Whisk in the butter and mustard and cook for 30 seconds. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Garnish with the parsley.
• Top the now-rested fillets with the sauce and taste.

Steps:

• Remove the tenderloin from the refrigerator 1 hour prior to cooking.
• On the tail end of the tenderloin, about a third of the way from where it begins to taper, make an incision almost all the way through the beef. Fold the tail onto the larger portion to make an even cylinder throughout. Use ten to twelve 8-inch pieces of butcher's twine to tie the tenderloin crosswise every 3/4 to 1 inch. This will help it to keep its shape and cook evenly.
• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• Pat the tenderloin dry. Brush with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and season heavily with salt and pepper all around. Put the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add the beef and sear on all sides until a nice crust is formed, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Add the thyme, garlic and 3 tablespoons of the butter to the pan. Once the butter is melted, use a spoon to baste the beef with the herb and garlic infused butter for 30 seconds.
• Transfer the beef to a rack on a baking sheet, spoon over 2 tablespoons of the herb and garlic butter mixture from the cast-iron pan (reserve the pan) and roast until the internal temperature of the thickest part reaches 120 degrees F (for medium rare), 1 to 2 hours, depending on the size of the tenderloin. Cover the beef with foil and rest for 15 minutes.
• Add the shallots to the remaining herb and garlic butter mixture in the cast-iron pan and sweat over medium heat until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Deglaze with the red wine and reduce until almost dry, 5 to 8 minutes. Add the beef stock, bring to a simmer and reduce by half, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, thoroughly mix the remaining 2 tablespoons butter with the flour in a small bowl.
• Reduce the heat to low and slowly whisk in the butter and flour mixture bit by bit, until the sauce reaches the desired consistency. Serve with the perfectly roasted beef.

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.

Steps:

• Combine all marinade ingredients in heavy saucepan; mMix well.
• Bring just to boiling point.
• Remove from heat, and allow to cool.
• Place beef in a glass, enamel, or stainless steel pan.
• Pour cooled marinade over beef, and cover.
• Allow to marinate overnight in fridge.
• Remove from fridge several hours before roasting.
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Place meat in shallow baking pan, and pour marinade over it.
• Roast for 20 minutes, basting with marinade from time to time.
• Reduce heat to 350°F.
• Continue roasting another 20 minutes (or until beef reaches desired doneness).
• Remove from oven and let cool in marinade.
• Cut into thin slices and serve at room temperature.
• NOTE: This is best served rare to med-rare. It is most often done after 40 minutes of roasting, so please be careful not to overcook.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. To cut beef so that it can be filled and rolled, cut horizontally down length of beef, about 1/2 inch from top of beef, to within 1/2 inch of opposite side; open flat. Turn beef. Repeat with other side of beef, cutting from the inside edge to within 1/2 inch of opposite edge; open flat.
• In 10-inch skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and liquid has evaporated. Cool 5 minutes. Add bread crumbs, cheese and parsley; toss to combine.
• Sprinkle bread crumb mixture over beef to within 1 inch of edges. Tightly roll up beef, beginning with long side. Turn small end of beef under about 6 inches so it cooks evenly. Tie beef with kitchen string at about 1 1/2-inch intervals. In shallow roasting pan, place beef, seam side down, on rack. Brush with oil; sprinkle with salt. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in center of thickest part of beef.
• Bake uncovered 30 to 40 minutes or until thermometer reads at least 140°F. Cover beef loosely with foil and let stand about 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 145°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F, and beef will be easier to carve.)
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat all sauce ingredients to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly reduced and syrupy. Remove string from beef before carving. Serve beef with sauce.

Steps:

• Place a heavy skillet over medium heat. Pour cream into skillet, bring to a simmer, and cook cream until it reduces by half, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Pour dried ravioli into boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until pasta is tender, 16 to 18 minutes. Drain pasta, reserving a cup of pasta water.
• Gently fold cooked ravioli into cream sauce and turn heat to low. Mix in Gorgonzola cheese, stirring gently until melted. If sauce is too thick, thin it with a little pasta cooking water.
• Stir in 2 tablespoons parsley and Parmesan cheese. Transfer to a serving bowl and sprinkle with diced apple, walnuts, and 1 teaspoon parsley.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the butter, Gorgonzola cheese, green onion, garlic and pepper. Warm slowly for about 5 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally until the sauce is nice and creamy. This sauce may also be cooked on a cool part of your grill while grilling meat.

Steps:

• Pour heavy cream into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until the cream has reduced by half, stirring occasionally, about an hour. Remove from heat and whisk in the Gorgonzola cheese and Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and nutmeg, until the cheese has melted.
• Season the beef tenderloin with lemon pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 3 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove the steaks from the grill and tent with foil to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve each steak with the Gorgonzola sauce and top with crumbled bacon and chopped green onion.

Steps:

• Melt butter in saucepan over medium-high heat. Add remaining sauce ingredients (except fresh rosemary) and boil until sauce is reduced to 1/2 cup. This takes about 10-20 minutes. Add fresh minced rosemary and set aside.
• Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Grill steaks.
• Spoon sauce over steaks, top with gorgonzola.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Rub the beef with a light coating of olive oil and a generous amount of salt and pepper around all sides. Do not be afraid to use salt on the outside. You need this to season the meat or it will be bland.
• Use a large sheet pan with short sides, like a cookie sheet. Place a flat rack in the sheet pan to keep the meat off the pan.
• Insert an oven proof thermometer in one end so that the tip is in the middle of the roast. Do not insert the rod from the top, as it is too hard to get it in the middle. Use a thermometer that sits on the counter with a cord. (you can find this in my favorite cooking tools link, I can't live without this)
• 4. Cook the roast for 15 minutes at 450 degrees and than lower the oven to 325 degrees. Do not open the oven at all during this time. Set the thermometer to 120 for medium rare or 125 for medium.
• Take the roast out of the oven when the thermometer reaches the desired temperature and cover with foil. Do not remove the thermometer. Let the roast sit for 15-20 minutes before slicing. You will see the thermometer will rise another 8-10 degrees. Medium Rare will rise close to 130 and more medium with register at 135 on thermometer. It's very important to let the roast rest out of the oven, it will continue to cook and allow the juices to spread back out into the meat. This is how you get the perfect cooking throughout your meat from top to bottom and from end to end.
• Gorgonzola Sauce: Bring the cream to a full boil in a medium to large sauce pan, boil rapidly until sauce thickens and stir occasionally. Take off the heat and add the rest of the ingredients until the cheeses are melted. This sauce can easily be made ahead of time and reheated.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Season the meat with the salt and pepper. In a large skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium-high heat until good and hot, then add the meat and sear until well browned on all sides, about 10 minutes total.
• Transfer the meat to a rack set on a baking sheet. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part registers 140 degrees F for medium-rare, about 30 minutes, or to your desired degree of doneness. Remove it from the oven, cover with aluminum foil, and let rest until the sauce is nearly done before slicing.
• While the meat cooks, make the sauce. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots, carrot and celery and cook, stirring a few times, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 2 minutes more. Add the wine and broth and stir in the tomato paste. Add the bay leaf and thyme and bring to a boil. Simmer until the liquid is reduced to about 1/2 cup, about 40 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer into a small saucepan. Stir in the cocoa and rosemary and season with salt and pepper. Serve on the side with the sliced tenderloin.
• Serving size 3 slices of meat and about 1 1/2 tablespoons of sauce

Steps:

• Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with Gorgonzola Sauce.
• GORGONZOLA SAUCE:.
• Bring the cream to a full boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then continue to simmer rapidly for 35 to 40 minutes, until it's thickened like a white sauce, stirring occasionally.
• Remove the pan from the heat & add the gorgonzola, parmesan, horseradish, salt, and pepper. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt, add parsley, and serve.

Steps:

• Place the beef and broth in a 6-quart Dutch oven, making sure the beef is totally covered by the stock, and cover with foil, leaving a small opening for steam to escape. Poke a small hole in the foil and insert an instant-read thermometer into the meat. Cook over low heat until the beef reaches 125 degrees F, 55 to 60 minutes. Transfer the beef to a cutting board and let stand 10 minutes.
• In a medium saucepan, bring the port to a boil and then reduce until about 1/3 cup. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. Season with salt and pepper.
• To serve, slice the beef, top with sauce and garnish with parsley.
