Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparation

    Take the beef tenderloin out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. Pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Seasoning

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

  3. 3

    Searing

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the beef and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side until a nice crust forms.

  4. 4

    Adding Flavor

    Add the crushed garlic cloves, butter, and rosemary to the skillet. Baste the beef with the melted butter and herbs for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Finishing

    Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) and roast for about 10-15 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.

  6. 6

    Resting

    Remove the skillet from the oven and let the beef rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

  7. 7

    Serving

    Slice the Chateaubriand into thick pieces and serve with your choice of sides.
