INGREDIENTS
6 oz Beef Tenderloin
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Fresh Rosemary
1 tsp Fresh Thyme
1 clove Garlic, minced
Pinch Sea Salt
Pinch Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Pat the beef tenderloin dry using paper towels to ensure a good sear.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped fresh rosemary, and thyme. Add a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
Rub the herb mixture evenly over the entire surface of the beef tenderloin.
Preheat a heavy skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
Once the pan is hot, add the beef tenderloin and sear for about 3-4 minutes on each side until a golden crust forms.
Lower the heat slightly and continue cooking to your desired doneness (for medium-rare, cook for an additional 2-3 minutes per side).
Remove the beef from the pan and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm, optionally paired with a light side salad or steamed vegetables.
