How to Make Beef Tenderloin With Wasabi Honey Sauce
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Combine 1 teaspoon of coarsely ground black pepper and 1 tablespoon of kosher salt in a spice grinder or mortar and pestle.
- Pat 2 lbs beef tenderloin dry with paper towels. Rub generously with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season all over with the salt and pepper mixture.
- Place the seasoned tenderloin in a roasting pan. Roast for 50-60 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare.
- Remove from oven and let rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
- While the beef rests, whisk together 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon wasabi paste (adjust to your spice preference), and 3 tablespoons honey in a medium bowl.
- Thinly slice the rested beef tenderloin against the grain and arrange on a serving platter.
- Drizzle the wasabi-honey glaze generously over the sliced beef tenderloin.
- Serve immediately with crusty bread or your favorite side dishes.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
