Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Beef
Remove the beef tenderloin from the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Sear the Tenderloin
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the beef with salt and black pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the beef tenderloin to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned.
Add Aromatics
Add the fresh thyme, butter, and crushed garlic cloves to the skillet. Baste the beef with the melted butter and aromatics for an additional 2 minutes.
Roast in Oven
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy.
Rest the Meat
Remove the skillet from the oven and transfer the beef to a cutting board. Cover loosely with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes.
Serve
Slice the Chateaubriand into thick steaks and serve with the red wine sauce drizzled over the top.
