Beef Tenderloin with Creamy Dijon Sauce
Juicy beef tenderloin is paired with a silky, tangy Dijon cream that adds a gentle heat and richness without overpowering the meat. The contrast of tender roast and cool, peppery sauce makes it ideal for holidays or a special dinner party. Beef Tenderloin with Creamy Dijon Sauce shines when sliced thin and topped with a generous spoonful of the chilled sauce.

Set the beef tenderloin on the prepared baking sheet. Rub it with butter, then drizzle with 1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce and season with salt and pepper. Tuck the tapered end of the tenderloin underneath so it cooks evenly.

Roast the tenderloin in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 135 degrees F (57 degrees C) for medium-rare, 25 to 30 minutes.

Move the tenderloin to a cutting board and loosely tent it with foil; let it rest for 10 minutes. (After resting, the thermometer should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).)
