How to Make Beef Tenderloin With Creamy Gorgonzola Sauce
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Pat the beef tenderloins dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over high heat. Sear the tenderloins on all sides for 2-3 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
- Place the thyme sprigs in the skillet around the tenderloins.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes for medium-rare (internal temperature of 130-135°F). Use a meat thermometer to ensure accuracy.
- Remove the skillet from the oven and let the tenderloins rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Tent with foil to keep warm.
- While the beef rests, prepare the sauce: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and garlic and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Add white wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
- Reduce the heat to low and stir in heavy cream. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Stir in the crumbled Gorgonzola cheese until melted and smooth.
- Season the sauce to taste with salt and pepper.
- Slice the beef tenderloins and serve immediately, topped with the creamy Gorgonzola sauce.
