Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef tenderloin
- 60 milliliters Soy sauce
- 30 milliliters Rice vinegar
- 15 milliliters Lemon juice
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 pieces Scallions, finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Start by preparing the marinade: In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil. Mix well and set aside.
Remove any excess fat from the beef tenderloin and season it with black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a thick-bottomed frying pan over high heat until very hot.
Sear the beef tenderloin on all sides, about 1-2 minutes per side, to create a nice crust while keeping the inside rare. Remove from heat.
Quickly plunge the seared beef into an ice bath for about 1 minute to stop the cooking process, then pat dry with paper towels.
Place the beef in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Cover and let it sit in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to absorb the flavors.
After marinating, slice the beef thinly against the grain with a sharp knife.
Arrange the slices on a platter and garnish with finely sliced scallions and sesame seeds.
Drizzle some of the remaining marinade over the slices just before serving.
