  • PREP TIME 15 Min
  • TOTAL TIME 1 Hr 15 Min
  • SERVINGS 8

 

1/4
cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4
cup chopped fresh basil leaves
1/4
cup chopped fresh thyme leaves
1/4
cup chopped fresh oregano leaves
3
cloves garlic, finely chopped
2
lb beef tenderloin, trimmed
3/4
teaspoon salt
1/4
teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3
tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 Heat oven to 400°F. In small bowl, mix parsley, basil, thyme, oregano and garlic; set aside.
  • 2 Spray bottom of roasting pan with cooking spray. Place beef in pan; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spread mustard evenly over beef; pat parsley mixture over mustard. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in center of thickest part of beef.
  • 3 Bake uncovered 35 to 45 minutes or until thermometer reads at least 140°F (for medium-rare doneness).
  • 4 Place beef on cutting board. Cover loosely with foil; let stand 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 145°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 5°F, and beef will be easier to carve.) Cut beef into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

Expert Tips

For medium doneness, bake 45 to 50 minutes or until thermometer reads at least 150°F. Cover; let stand 15 minutes or until thermometer reads 160°F.

Do some taste-testing of various brands of Dijon mustard. Not only do they vary in color, from bright yellow to brownish yellow, but their flavors vary as well.

    This is really good!! I made it today for our Easter dinner with just a few changes. I used and Eye of Round rather than a Tenderloin just because the Eye of Round is a leaner cut of meat. I also wanted to cut back on the sodium since my hubby is on a low sodium diet so I only used 1 T. of Dijon mustard rather than 3 and I used only 1/8 tsp. of lite salt. I then cooked it about 3/4 of the way in the oven and then finished on the grill so that it would have a grilled flavor. It was so good that I have very little leftovers. We will make this again very soon.
