Ingredients

Roasted Beef Tenderloin

  • 1 3- pound beef tenderloin roast
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons Kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon coarsely ground fresh black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons ghee or butter
  • 16 ounces cremini or button mushrooms, halved

White Wine Cream Sauce

  • ½ cup white wine - chardonnay suggested
  • 2 tablespoons ghee or butter
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
  • Kosher salt and pepper - to taste

Instructions

Roasted Beef Tenderloin

  • Rub the beef with mustard and season generously with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour; up to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 450F and place tenderloin in a roasting pan, top with halved mushrooms and ghee or butter; roast for 15 minutes. Lower heat to 325F, and roast for an additional 30-35 minutes until tenderloin reaches an internal temperature of 125F for medium rare doneness, or 145F for medium doneness. Make sure to use a meat thermometer to test.
  • Allow roast to rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

White Wine Cream Sauce

  • To a medium saucepan, pour in wine; simmer 3-5 minutes or until the wine has reduced by about half. Add in the butter and fresh thyme, whisk and cook until butter has melted into wine.
  • Slowly pour in the heavy cream, and bring the sauce to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the sauce slightly thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve warm.
