Beef Tenderloin With Mushroom Gravy Food

BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Set the beef tenderloin on the kitchen counter for 1 hour before cooking.
• Preheat oven to 450˚F.
• Pat dry the beef with paper towels.
• In a small mixing bowl combine salt, pepper, thyme, oregano, and olive oil; mix to combine. Rub the mixture on the beef tenderloin.
• Tie with twine: Place the tenderloin over pieces of precut kitchen twine spaced one-inch apart and tie them closed. You can also ask the butcher to do this for you.
• OPTIONAL STEP: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet. Add the beef tenderloin to the hot oil and sear on all sides until browned. About 2 minutes per side.
• Place beef on a jelly roll pan, tucking the thin end under the meat, if it is not already tucked underneath and tied.
• Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, or until internal temperature registers at 130˚F to 135˚F. Cooking time may vary depending on the size of the tenderloin; use an instant read thermometer to check for doneness. Start checking around the 22-minute mark.
• Remove from oven and transfer beef to a cutting board. Tent a piece of foil over the beef and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes before cutting.

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN WITH MUSHROOM RAGOUT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the beef dry and season all over with salt and a generous amount of pepper. Add the oil to the skillet and heat until shimmering. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and swirl to melt. Add the beef and sear until mahogany brown on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
• Transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 125 degrees F for medium-rare, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile make the ragout: Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and spread them out evenly; increase the heat to high. Let the mushrooms cook, undisturbed, until browned, then shake the skillet to flip them over. Add the additional butter along the sides of the skillet as the mushrooms cook, if the skillet seems very dry. Continue to cook until nicely browned, about 5 minutes.
• Add the shallot and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Season the mushrooms with 1/2 teaspoon salt and some ground black pepper; add the thyme. Pull the skillet off the heat and add the Madeira. Return the skillet to the heat and scrape up any of the brown bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
• When the beef is ready, transfer to a cutting board, tent very loosely with aluminum foil, and let rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Slice the beef across the grain crosswise, arrange on a platter and serve with the mushroom ragout.

BEEF TENDERLOIN FILET WITH MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• For the beef tenderloin: Preheat a saute pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Lightly oil the steaks. Place the steaks in the very hot pan and get a good sear on both sides. Cook for 6 to 7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steak from the pan and let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes.
• For the mushroom sauce: Drain the fat from the pan. Add the shallots, bring the pan to a medium heat and season with salt. Cook the shallots for 3 to 4 minutes, and then add in the garlic. Cook the garlic and shallots together for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms, season with salt and stir to coat with the oil. Cook the mushrooms until they look soft and wilted, 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add the veal demi-glace. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes; the consistency should be almost as thick as gravy. If it is still thin, let it simmer for another couple of minutes until it does thicken.
• Check the consistency by coating a spoon with the sauce, turn the spoon over and draw a line down the middle of the spoon with your finger. If your finger leaves a track down the spoon without moving, then it is ready! Taste and adjust the salt, if needed.
• For the twice-baked potato mash and green beans: Add the potatoes to a pot of salted water. Turn the heat to medium and cook until the potatoes are fork tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain the potatoes well and pass through a food mill or ricer. Stir in the sour cream and heavy cream. Fold in the broccoli and Cheddar. Taste and season with salt as needed.
• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until just tender, about 2 minutes. Remove from the water and immediately add to a salted ice bath. Heat the olive oil in a medium saute pan. Add green beans and saute quickly until heated through.
• Serve the filets with the mushroom sauce on top and the twice-baked potato mash and green beans on the side.
