Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and set aside.
Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the beef tenderloin and pat it dry with paper towels. Season the tenderloin all over with 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
In a small bowl, mix together the prepared horseradish, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme.
In another small bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
Rub the horseradish-mustard mixture evenly all over the beef tenderloin, making sure to coat it completely.
Gently press the panko breadcrumb mixture onto the mustard-coated tenderloin, ensuring an even layer for a crisp crust.
Transfer the beef tenderloin to the prepared baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 125°F (52°C) for medium-rare or 135°F (57°C) for medium.
Remove the tenderloin from the oven and loosely tent it with aluminum foil. Let it rest for at least 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Slice the beef tenderloin into 1-inch-thick slices and serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes.
