Cold Beef Tenderloin Appetizer Food

EASY BEEF TENDERLOIN CROSTINIS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500F. Place the beef tenderloin on a baking sheet, drizzle with 3-4 tablespoons of olive oil, and season liberally with salt and pepper, making sure to rub oil and seasoning evenly over all sides of the tenderloin.
• Roast the tenderloin for 20 minutes or until an internal thermometer reads 125F for rare to medium-rare meat. Remove from the oven and tent with aluminum foil. Let the beef tenderloin rest while you prepare the crostinis and horseradish sauce, about 20 minutes.
• Turn down the oven to 400F. Thinly slice your baguettes into 1/2-inch slices, yielding around 50 crostinis. Organize the baguette slices in a single layer on a baking sheet (you may need more than one) and drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil (or more if desired). Bake for about 7-8 minutes until lightly toasted and golden brown. Note: For extra crunchy crostinis, reduce heat to 350F and bake, rotating baking sheet(s) halfway through, for 15-20 minutes until golden brown. Once they have reached your ideal texture, remove the crostinis from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
• While the meat and crostinis are cooling, make the homemade horseradish sauce. Combine the sour cream, horseradish, and minced chives in a medium bowl and stir until combined. Season with salt and pepper.
• Remove the tented foil from the beef tenderloin, transfer the meat to a cutting board, and thinly slice. Spoon a dime-sized dollop of homemade horseradish sauce onto each toasted crostini, followed by a thin slice of beef tenderloin. Top each crostini off with another dime-sized dollop of horseradish sauce and add some microgreens on top for garnish. Serve warm and enjoy!
