Tender Beef Wellington with Crispy Prosciutto Crust
Pan-seared beef tenderloin wrapped in savory prosciutto and earthy mushrooms, then baked inside a delicate, golden pastry for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz beef tenderloin
1 slice prosciutto
0.5 cup cremini mushrooms
1 tbsp shallot
0.5 tsp olive oil
1 tsp dijon mustard
0.05 sheet puff pastry
1 large egg
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp fresh thyme
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the beef tenderloin with sea salt and black pepper, then sear in a hot pan with olive oil for 2 minutes per side until browned.
Remove the beef from the pan and immediately brush with Dijon mustard while it is still warm.
In the same pan, sauté the finely minced cremini mushrooms, shallots, and thyme until all moisture has evaporated and the mixture is dry.
Lay out a piece of plastic wrap, place the prosciutto slices slightly overlapping, and spread the mushroom mixture evenly on top.
Place the beef in the center, roll it tightly using the plastic wrap to form a log, and chill in the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up.
Unwrap the beef and place it on the puff pastry sheet, folding the edges to seal the beef completely.
Brush the pastry with beaten egg and bake for 15-20 minutes until the pastry is golden and the beef reaches your desired level of doneness.
