1
Prepare the Beef Tenderloin
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Season the beef tenderloin with salt and black pepper on all sides.
2
Sear the Beef
In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, sear the tenderloin for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned.
3
Roast the Beef
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
4
Rest the Beef
Remove the beef from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before carving.
5
Prepare the Bordelaise Sauce
In a saucepan, combine red wine and shallots. Bring to a simmer and reduce until thickened, about 10 minutes.
6
Finish the Sauce
Add beef stock and fresh thyme to the saucepan. Simmer until reduced by half. Stir in butter and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
7
Carve and Serve
Carve the rested tenderloin tableside and drizzle with the warm bordelaise sauce before serving.
