  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).

  2. 2

    Tie the tenderloin with kitchen string at 2-inch intervals.

  3. 3

    Combine the oil and garlic in a bowl; brush the mixture over the meat. Mix the basil, rosemary, sea salt, and black pepper in a bowl; sprinkle evenly over the meat.

  4. 4

    Roast the beef tenderloin in the preheated oven until it starts to firm and is hot and slightly pink in the center, 40 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should register 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
