Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 6-ounce steaks beef tenderloin steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons crumbled bleu cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Brush each beef tenderloin steak with olive oil on all sides.
Season the steaks with kosher salt and black pepper, ensuring an even coating.
Heat a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the steaks and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until a golden crust forms.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the steaks for 10-15 minutes, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).
While the steaks are roasting, make the bleu cheese butter. In a small bowl, mix together the unsalted butter, crumbled bleu cheese, minced garlic, and chopped parsley until well combined.
Once the steaks are done, remove them from the oven and let them rest on a cutting board for 5-10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
Top each steak with a dollop of the bleu cheese butter while it’s still warm, allowing the butter to melt and coat the meat.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or garlic mashed potatoes.
