Oven Roasted Beef Tenderloin

This Oven Roasted Beef Tenderloin recipe delivers a succulent, herb-infused beef dish that's perfect for keto dinners or special occasions.

📝 Ingredients

• 1 pound beef tenderloin
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
• Sea salt (to taste)
• Freshly cracked black pepper (to taste)
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. 2Combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Thoroughly coat the beef tenderloin with this herbed butter mixture.
3. 3Warm your cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
4. 4Once hot, lay the beef tenderloin in the skillet. Add butter and let it melt, ensuring the beef is coated. Sear the beef for about 2 minutes on each side until you get a golden-brown crust.
5. 5After searing, move the skillet with the beef into the already-preheated oven.
6. 6Roast for 15-20 minutes. For a medium-rare finish, ensure the meat's internal temperature is around 135°F (60°C). Use a meat thermometer for this step.
7. 7Once done, take the skillet out of the oven. Allow the tenderloin to sit for approximately 5 minutes to allow the juices to settle nicely. Then, carve into thick, beautiful slices.
8. 8Your cast iron beef tenderloin is ready to serve!
