1
Prepare the Tenderloin
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Trim any excess fat from the beef tenderloin and tie it with kitchen twine for even cooking.
2
Season the Beef
Rub the beef tenderloin with olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Ensure it is evenly coated.
3
Sear the Tenderloin
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
4
Roast in the Oven
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the beef for about 20-25 minutes for medium-rare, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C).
5
Rest the Meat
Remove the skillet from the oven and add butter to the pan. Baste the beef with the melted butter and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
6
Serve
Slice the Chateaubriand into thick medallions and serve with your choice of signature side.
