Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Tenderloin

    Season the beef tenderloin with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from the skillet and let it rest.

  2. 2

    Make the Balsamic Cream Sauce

    In the same skillet, add balsamic vinegar and scrape any browned bits from the bottom. Allow it to reduce for about 5 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and let it simmer until thickened, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Cook the Collard Greens

    In a separate pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic, cooking until translucent. Add collard greens and a splash of water, cooking until greens are tender, about 10-15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Slice the rested beef tenderloin and serve with the balsamic cream sauce drizzled on top. Plate with collard greens and a side of black eyed peas for good fortune.
