1
Prepare the Beef
Remove the beef tenderloin from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps it cook evenly.
2
Season the Beef
Pat the tenderloin dry with paper towels. Rub the olive oil all over the meat, then sprinkle the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chopped fresh rosemary evenly on both sides.
3
Cook the Beef
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the tenderloin on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
4
Rest the Beef
Remove the beef from the heat and let it rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
5
Serve
Slice the tenderloin against the grain and serve immediately. Enjoy your perfectly seasoned filet!
