Herb Butter Beef Tenderloin Roast

Ingredients :

3 lbs beef tenderloin, trimmed

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

For the herb butter:

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped

2 tablespoons fresh thyme, finely chopped

2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Directions :

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Rub the beef tenderloin all over with olive oil and generously season with salt and black pepper.

 

In a small bowl, mix together the softened butter, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, and parsley.

Place the tenderloin in a roasting pan. Evenly spread the herb butter over the surface of the meat.

 

Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.

 

Remove from the oven, tent loosely with foil, and let rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This Herb Butter Beef Tenderloin Roast is a luxurious and flavorful centerpiece perfect for a special holiday meal, combining the rich flavors of beef with aromatic herbs and garlic.
