Beef Tenderloin With Gorgonzola Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Pour heavy cream into a saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until the cream has reduced by half, stirring occasionally, about an hour. Remove from heat and whisk in the Gorgonzola cheese and Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and nutmeg, until the cheese has melted.
• Season the beef tenderloin with lemon pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside. Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Cook the steaks until they start to firm, and are reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 3 to 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Remove the steaks from the grill and tent with foil to rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Serve each steak with the Gorgonzola sauce and top with crumbled bacon and chopped green onion.

Steps:

• Marinate the tenderloin in the apple cider vinegar for 10 minutes. Afterward, pat the meat dry with paper towels. This step can be done up to 24 hours ahead, if desired.
• Combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce & mustard.
• Spread this spice paste over the tenderloin, coating the whole exterior.
• Place on a broiler pan and drizzle half of the melted butter over the tenderloin. Broil for 5 minutes. Turn tenderloin over to other side & drizzle with the remaining butter. Broil for another 5 minutes.
• NOTE - BEGIN MAKING SAUCE NOW, SEE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW.
• Set the oven to 350 degrees and bake the tenderloin at this temperature for 45 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let sit for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with Gorgonzola Sauce.
• GORGONZOLA SAUCE:.
• Bring the cream to a full boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then continue to simmer rapidly for 35 to 40 minutes, until it's thickened like a white sauce, stirring occasionally.
• Remove the pan from the heat & add the gorgonzola, parmesan, horseradish, salt, and pepper. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt, add parsley, and serve.

Steps:

• Bring the heavy cream to a full boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, then continue to boil rapidly for 45 to 50 minutes, until thickened like a white sauce, stirring occasionally.
• Off the heat, add the Gorgonzola, Parmesan, salt, pepper, and parsley. Whisk rapidly until the cheeses melt and serve warm. If you must reheat, warm the sauce over low heat until melted, then whisk vigorously until the sauce comes together.

Steps:

• Let meat rest 10 minutes before beginning dinner preparation.
• Place a large, flat griddle or skillet over high heat. When hot, using a pair of tongs and a folded paper towel, wipe cooking surface with oil and place steaks on hot pan. Caramelize the steaks, 2 minutes on each side. Reduce heat to moderate. Season meat with salt and pepper and cook 4 to 5 minutes longer on each side.
• Preheat broiler to high.
• Arrange steaks on baking sheet. Top each steak with 3 ounces Gorgonzola. Place baking sheet 6 inches from broiler heat just long enough to melt the cheese. Remove meat from the oven and top with slivers of fresh sage. Let meat rest 2 or 3 minutes, then serve immediately.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the fillets on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Cut off the tough ends of the mushroom stems. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a small saucepan and add the mushrooms. Cook briefly until heated through, 1 minute or less. Remove from heat.
• Heat the oil in a heavy skillet large enough to hold the fillets in one layer. Add the fillets and cook 3 minutes on one side. Turn the pieces and cook 2 minutes on the other side.
• Transfer the meat to a warm platter and pour off the fat from the skillet.
• Add 1 tablespoon of butter and the shallots to the skillet. Cook, stirring, about 1 minute, add the wine and broth and stir to dissolve the brown particles that cling to the bottom and sides of the pan.
• Add the cheese and cook, stirring briskly, until the cheese is melted and the sauce is reduced to about 1/3 cup.
• Line a saucepan with a sieve and pour the sauce into the sieve. Press around with a rubber spatula to extract as much liquid as possible. Bring the sauce to the simmer and swirl in the remaining tablespoon of butter.
• Spoon the sauce over the meat and garnish each serving with an equal portion of the mushrooms.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Rub the beef with a light coating of olive oil and a generous amount of salt and pepper around all sides. Do not be afraid to use salt on the outside. You need this to season the meat or it will be bland.
• Use a large sheet pan with short sides, like a cookie sheet. Place a flat rack in the sheet pan to keep the meat off the pan.
• Insert an oven proof thermometer in one end so that the tip is in the middle of the roast. Do not insert the rod from the top, as it is too hard to get it in the middle. Use a thermometer that sits on the counter with a cord. (you can find this in my favorite cooking tools link, I can't live without this)
• 4. Cook the roast for 15 minutes at 450 degrees and than lower the oven to 325 degrees. Do not open the oven at all during this time. Set the thermometer to 120 for medium rare or 125 for medium.
• Take the roast out of the oven when the thermometer reaches the desired temperature and cover with foil. Do not remove the thermometer. Let the roast sit for 15-20 minutes before slicing. You will see the thermometer will rise another 8-10 degrees. Medium Rare will rise close to 130 and more medium with register at 135 on thermometer. It's very important to let the roast rest out of the oven, it will continue to cook and allow the juices to spread back out into the meat. This is how you get the perfect cooking throughout your meat from top to bottom and from end to end.
• Gorgonzola Sauce: Bring the cream to a full boil in a medium to large sauce pan, boil rapidly until sauce thickens and stir occasionally. Take off the heat and add the rest of the ingredients until the cheeses are melted. This sauce can easily be made ahead of time and reheated.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. To cut beef so that it can be filled and rolled, cut horizontally down length of beef, about 1/2 inch from top of beef, to within 1/2 inch of opposite side; open flat. Turn beef. Repeat with other side of beef, cutting from the inside edge to within 1/2 inch of opposite edge; open flat.
• In 10-inch skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and liquid has evaporated. Cool 5 minutes. Add bread crumbs, cheese and parsley; toss to combine.
• Sprinkle bread crumb mixture over beef to within 1 inch of edges. Tightly roll up beef, beginning with long side. Turn small end of beef under about 6 inches so it cooks evenly. Tie beef with kitchen string at about 1 1/2-inch intervals. In shallow roasting pan, place beef, seam side down, on rack. Brush with oil; sprinkle with salt. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in center of thickest part of beef.
• Bake uncovered 30 to 40 minutes or until thermometer reads at least 140°F. Cover beef loosely with foil and let stand about 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 145°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F, and beef will be easier to carve.)
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, heat all sauce ingredients to boiling, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to low; simmer uncovered 35 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly reduced and syrupy. Remove string from beef before carving. Serve beef with sauce.
