🥘Ingredients

For the Beef

1.5 lbs beef tenderloin
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried rosemary
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

For the Vegetables

2 medium potatoes, cut into wedges
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
2 medium onions, cut into wedges

For the Sauce

2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp flour
1 cup beef broth
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

👨‍🍳Directions

1Preheat oven to 450°F.
2Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3In a small bowl, combine minced garlic, dried rosemary, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper.
4Rub the mixture evenly over the beef tenderloin, ensuring it is well coated.
5Place the beef on the prepared baking sheet.
6Place the beef in the preheated oven and roast for 20 minutes.
7Then reduce the oven temperature to 400°F and continue roasting for another 20-25 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 135°F for medium-rare.
8Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature in the thickest part of the beef.
9While the beef is roasting, toss the potatoes, carrots, and onions with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
10Spread them on a separate baking sheet and roast in the oven at 400°F for about 25-30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned.
11Remove the beef from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
12This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
13Transfer the beef to a cutting board and slice it into 1/2-inch thick slices.
14In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
15Add the flour and whisk to form a roux.
16Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly.
17Gradually add the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, whisking continuously until the sauce thickens.
18Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has reached your desired consistency.
19Serve the sliced beef with the roasted vegetables and drizzle the sauce over the top.
20Enjoy your perfectly roasted beef tenderloin with a side of vegetables and a rich, flavorful sauce.
