For Cooking the Tenderloin

Side Items

Method

Preparing the Shrimp

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the jumbo shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill or Blacken the Shrimp

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side, until they are opaque and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Cooking the Tenderloin

  1. 3

    Season the Tenderloin

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

  2. 4

    Cook the Tenderloin

    In a skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add the tenderloin and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

Preparing Side Items

  1. 5

    Grill the Asparagus

    Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then grill for about 5-7 minutes until tender and slightly charred.

  2. 6

    Make the Mashed Potatoes

    Boil peeled potatoes until tender, then mash with butter, milk, salt, and pepper to taste.

Serving
