Ingredients

2 (2 to 2 1/2 pound) center-cut pieces beef tenderloin – ask the butcher to give you 2 pieces for use in a Chateaubriand recipe
Extra virgin olive oil, for coating roasts, plus 3 tablespoons for sauce
Grill seasoning (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning for Steak by McCormick)
5 whole roasted red peppers, coarsely chopped, well drained and pat dry
2 cloves garlic, popped from skin
Handful flat-leaf parsley
1 cup good quality pitted black olives, from bulk bins, such as kalamata, drained well
Salt and pepper
Crusty bread, sliced

Directions

Preheat oven as high as it goes, 500 degrees F.

Liberally coat the meat with extra-virgin olive oil and grill seasoning. Place the meat on a roasting rack or in a roasting pan and place in oven. If you are cooking in a pan with no rack, add a splash of water to the pan. Roast the meat 10 minutes on high then reduce heat to 350 degrees F and cook 30 minutes more. Do not open oven during those first 10 minutes. Remove meat from oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Place roasted peppers in food processor and add garlic, parsley, olives, salt and pepper. Turn the processor on and stream in extra-virgin olive oil, about 3 tablespoons.

Thinly slice meat against grain and serve with crusty bread and sauce.

Excellent and Easy!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Pro: I had never made beef tenderloin before and I was surprised how good it is! Everyone enjoyed it so much, that I had to... share the recipe! This recipe is too easy to make, that I recommend it to anyone who doesn't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen. Also, I didn't spend too much for the tenderloin. At my supermarket, it was $5.99 a pound. Con: The cooking time took a bit longer than 40 minutes. Read more

What Rachel Didn't Tell You!!!
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

If I am selling an entire cryo vac beef tenderloin for $9.99 a pound, and you come in looking for the center 2 pound roast... trimmed and ready to roast, you better be prepared to spend $20 a pound for that center cut of meat.Read more
