Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds beef tenderloin
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
5 small red-skinned potatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
2/3 cup jarred roasted red peppers, drained, rinsed and diced
1 small shallot, minced
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon capers, chopped
1/4 teaspoon finely grated garlic
1/4 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
Large pinch of sugar
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Season the meat with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven; roast until a thermometer inserted into the meat registers 125 degrees F, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a saucepan, cover with cold water and add salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until just tender, up to 5 minutes. Drain and let cool.
- Mix the roasted peppers, shallot, vinegar, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the capers, garlic, rosemary, sugar, and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl. Thinly slice the beef and arrange on the potato rounds; top with the pepper salsa. Serve warm or at room temperature.
