Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tenderloin

    Remove the beef tenderloin from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Pat it dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Meat

    Rub the tenderloin with olive oil, then season generously with salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh rosemary. Mince the garlic and rub it over the meat.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Pan

    Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add a little more olive oil to the pan if needed.

  4. 4

    Sear the Tenderloin

    Place the tenderloin in the skillet and sear for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  5. 5

    Rest the Meat

    Once cooked, remove the tenderloin from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes before slicing.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the tenderloin into medallions and serve immediately, pairing with your favorite sides.
