Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Season the beef tenderloin with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Beef

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned beef and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a brown crust forms. Add butter and garlic to the skillet, basting the beef with the melted butter for extra flavor.

  3. 3

    Cook the Asparagus

    While the beef is searing, bring a pot of water to a boil. Blanch the asparagus for 2-3 minutes until tender but still crisp. Remove and plunge into ice water to stop cooking. Drain and toss with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Prepare Mashed Potatoes

    Prepare mashed potatoes according to your favorite recipe or package instructions, ensuring they are creamy and well-seasoned.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Slice the seared beef and serve alongside the mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus. Sprinkle parmesan cheese over the asparagus before serving.
