Preparation

Preparation of Beef Tenderloin

1. Season the Beef

Rub the beef tenderloin with olive oil, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Ensure the beef is evenly coated with the seasoning.

2. Sear the Beef

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the beef tenderloin on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

3. Roast the Beef

Transfer the seared beef to an oven preheated to 200°C (400°F) and roast for 20-25 minutes for medium-rare, or until desired doneness.

4. Rest the Beef

Remove the beef from the oven and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

Preparation of Asparagus

5. Prepare the Asparagus

Trim the ends of the asparagus and place them in a pot of boiling water for 2-3 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.

6. Sauté the Asparagus

Drain the asparagus and then heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the asparagus and sauté for 3-4 minutes.

7. Finish with Lemon and Parmesan

Add lemon juice and grated Parmesan cheese to the skillet with asparagus, tossing to combine and heat through.

Preparation of Sauce

8. Make the Sauce

In the same skillet used for the beef, add red wine and beef broth over medium heat. Bring to a simmer.

9. Thicken the Sauce

In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Slowly add the slurry to the simmering sauce, stirring until thickened, about 2-3 minutes.

10. Serve the Sauce

Strain the sauce if desired and serve it warm over the sliced beef tenderloin.
