Roast Tenderloin And Maui Onion Food

CENTER CUT TENDERLOIN ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F.
• Combine kosher salt, black pepper, and cumin in a shallow dish. Roll roast in seasonings, coating well.
• Preheat a cast iron grill pan over high heat. Once the pan is hot, brush the roast with the olive oil, and sear on all sides, approximately 8 to 10 minutes total cooking time. Remove the roast to a plate, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Place the roast back onto the grill pan, put in the oven and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F, approximately 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, wrap in foil, and allow to rest for 30 minutes before cutting.

MAUI ONION TOMATO SALAD WITH PANCETTA AND BASIL BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Make vinaigrette: heat the olive oil in a large saute pan and saute the pancetta, garlic and shallot over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in the vinegar and half of the basil. Add the onions and return to the heat for about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining basil.
• Core the tomatoes; cut a slice off the tops and bottoms and discard. Cut each tomato into 3 thick slices. Try and keep the slices in order!
• To assemble: place a bottom tomato slice on each serving plate. Place a layer of the greens on top of the tomato, using up about half the greens. Place a layer of the onions and a little of the vinaigrette over the greens, and then the center tomato slice. Add another layer of the greens (use the rest), onions (save some for garnish) and top with the last slice of tomato. Garnish with onion and a basil sprig.

ROAST BEEF TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Combine porcini mushrooms and water in a bowl; soak until soft, 1 hour. Drain and reserve liquid. Dice and set mushrooms and reserved liquid aside.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season beef generously with salt and pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a large ovenproof skillet over high heat. Place beef in the skillet; cook until brown on all sides, 5 to 8 minutes per side.
• Reduce heat to medium and stir in 1 tablespoon butter, shallots, and a pinch of salt; cook until shallots are soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Pour tarragon vinegar into the skillet and bring to a boil while scraping any browned bits off of the bottom. Stir until liquid is reduced by half, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Pour in veal stock, cream, 1/2 cup reserved mushroom liquid, mushrooms, salt, and pepper; stir to combine. Return beef to the skillet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until meat is medium rare, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Transfer meat to a plate and loosely tent with foil. Set skillet over high heat and bring pan juices to a boil.
• Stir in 1 tablespoon butter and tarragon; season with salt and pepper to taste. Return tenderloin and any accumulated juices to skillet and serve.
