Herb Crusted Beef Tenderloin With Red Wine Reduction And Blue Cheese Crumbles Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Tie the beef with butcher's string and rub with the olive oil. Combine the rosemary, parsley, thyme, and garlic and pat the mixture on the beef. Season the beef with salt and pepper.
• Over high heat sear the beef in an ovenproof skillet, turning to brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Place the skillet directly into the oven and roast the beef for 20 to 25 minutes. Let the beef rest for 10 minutes before removing the string and slicing.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Line the bottom and sides of an 8 by 8 by 2-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Rub the parchment paper with butter and a little bit of the garlic. Lay the potatoes in overlapping rows to cover the bottom of the parchment paper. Sprinkle with some of the cheese and garlic. Repeat the layering process until all the potatoes, cheese and garlic have been used.
• Whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Pour the egg mixture over the potatoes. Press down on the potatoes to distribute the egg mixture. Cover the dish with parchment paper and bake for 1 1/2 hours. (Remove the parchment paper from the top for the last 20 minutes to brown the top).
• Allow the flan to rest for at least 15 minutes before turning out of the pan and cutting into serving sizes. This dish is best made a day ahead, then portioned and reheated in 400 degree F oven for 10 to 15 minutes.
• In a medium pot heat the olive oil over medium-high heat, add the onions, and cook for 7 minutes until soft, stirring frequently. Stir in the sugar and salt, and cook for a further 7 minutes. Add the port and vinegar, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 30 minutes or until thickened. Stir in the thyme. Keeps for 1 week stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the cippolini onions: Slice off the root end of the cippolinis. Put the cippolinis on a sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes in their skins. Remove from the oven, allow to come to room temperature, peel and reserve.
• For the beef tenderloin: Tie the beef tenderloin and season it generously with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then the tenderloin. Sear in the skillet on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Arrange the onions, garlic, thyme and carrots around the beef and add 2 tablespoons butter. Transfer to the oven and roast until the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
• Remove the tenderloin from the skillet and let rest. Add 1 cup each of the beef stock and wine to the vegetables, along with the cippolini onions, and bring to a simmer, basting the vegetables occasionally. Cook until the liquid begins to reduce and thicken, about 15 minutes. Remove and reserve the carrots and cippolini onions and strain the liquid into a clean medium saucepan.
• Add the remaining beef stock and red wine to the liquid in the saucepan and cook over medium-high heat until it reaches a glaze-like consistency, 10 to 15 minutes. Reduce the heat and, while whisking, add remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Whisk until the butter is fully absorbed and the glaze has a nice sheen. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut tenderloin in half and submerge each piece in the red wine glaze, coating well. Remove beef, take off string and slice into 1-inch pieces. Arrange sliced beef on a platter and top with the reserved carrots, cippolini onions and watercress.

Steps:

• Place beef in a shallow dish. Combine teriyaki sauce, red wine and garlic; pour over beef. Allow beef to marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Place tenderloin on broiler pan, and cook in preheated oven for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C), and cook for 30 to 40 more minutes, or to desired doneness. Allow to set for 10 minutes before slicing.
• In a saucepan over low heat, combine blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until smooth; serve over sliced tenderloin.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 °F. Rub 1 tablespoon oil over each beef piece. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat 2 large nonstick skillets over high heat. Add 1 beef piece to each; brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Place beef pieces in large roasting pan. Mix 6 tablespoons oil, garlic, 2 tablespoons thyme and 2 tablespoons rosemary in small bowl. Coat top and sides of beef pieces with mustard, then with herb mixture. Roast until meat thermometer inserted into center of beef registers 125 °F for medium-rare, about 45 minutes. Transfer to platter. Let stand 10 minutes. Cut beef into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 tablespoon each of thyme and rosemary and serve with pepper relish.

Steps:

• Tuck the thin, tapered end of the tenderloin under the roast, then tie the entire roast every 1 1/2 inches.
• Combine 1 tablespoon salt, 1 tablespoon pepper, and sugar in small bowl and rub all over tenderloin. Transfer tenderloin to wire rack set on rimmed baking sheet and let stand at room temperature for 2 hours.
• Bread Crumb Topping: Pulse bread in food processor to fine crumbs. Transfer bread crumbs to medium bowl and toss in 2 tablespoons parsley, 2 teaspoons thyme, 1/2 cup parmesan, and 2 tablespoons oil until evenly combined.
• Herb Paste: Wipe out food processor and process remaining 6 tablespoons parsley, 2 tablespoons thyme, 3/4 cups cheese, 4 tablespoons oil, and garlic until smooth paste forms. Transfer herb paste to small bowl.
• Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 400°F Roast tenderloin 20 minutes and remove from oven. Using scissors, cut and remove twine.
• Using a spatula, spread the herb paste evenly over the top and sides of the tenderloin.
• Press the bread-crumb mixture evenly onto the roast, using the other hand to catch the crumbs and keep them from falling through the rack.
• Roast until thickest part of meat registers about 130°F and topping is golden brown, 20-25 minutes. (If topping browns before meat reaches preferred internal temperature, lightly cover with foil for balance of roasting time and remove while roast rests.).
• Let roast rest, uncovered, for 30 minutes on wire rack. Transfer to cutting board and carve. Serve.

Steps:

• Combine the butter and the flour together.
• Bring the beef broth and madiera to a boil.
• Whisk in the butter and flour mixture until completely dissolved.
• Simmer for about 15 to 20 minutes, until the liquid is thickened and reduced by half.
• While the sauce is simmering, preheat the oven to 350*F.
• Spray the rack of a roasting pan with nonstick spray and place in the pan.
• Slice the tenderloin into 6 portions that are approximately 3 inched in diameter and 1 1/2 inches thick.
• Tie butcher's twine around the beef medallions so they maintain their shape while cooking if desired.
• Combine the breadcrumbs, blue cheese, parsley, chives and pepper to form a paste.
• Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over high heat.
• Sear the medallions until just browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
• Arrange the medallions in a roasting pan.
• Coat the top side of each medallion with 3 TBs of the blue cheese and herb crust.
• Roast until the crust is golden brown and the meat is cooked as desired, about 6 to 8 minutes for medium rare, depending on the size of the medallions.
• If butchers twine was used, be sure to remove it.
• Serve the medallions on a pool of the warm madiera sauce.

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic, shallot, and thyme. Sauté until shallot is tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth and wine. Boil until sauce is reduced to 1/2 cup, about 12 minutes. Set sauce aside.
• Blend cheese, panko, and parsley in small bowl to coat cheese evenly with panko. (Sauce and cheese mixture can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill.)
• Preheat broiler. Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Add steaks to skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to rimmed baking sheet; reserve skillet. Press cheese mixture onto top of steaks, dividing equally. Broil until cheese browns, about 2 minutes. Transfer steaks to plates.
• Pour sauce into reserved skillet. Bring to boil, scraping up browned bits. Boil 2 minutes. Whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce around steaks and serve.
