emeril lagasse recipe

Ingredients:

Steps:

• To prepare beef: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Rub the tenderloin with the oil and Emeril’s Original Essence. Heat a sauté pan large enough to hold the tenderloin over high heat until the pan is very hot, about 2 minutes. Sear the meat until evenly browned on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Remove from the heat.
• Line a shallow baking pan fitted with a wire rack with aluminum foil. Place the tenderloin on the rack. Rub the top and sides of the meat with the mustard.
• Combine the horseradish, black pepper, garlic, and salt in a small mixing bowl. Using your hands, press the horseradish mixture over the mustard on the top and sides of the tenderloin.
• Roast the tenderloin for about 30 minutes for rare (120 to 125 degrees F on an instant meat thermometer) and about 35 minutes for medium-rare (130 to 140 degrees F on an instant meat thermometer).
• Remove from the oven and rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
• Drizzle the beef with the wine reduction if desired.
• To prepare port wine reduction: Combine all of the ingredients in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Continue to boil the mixture until it thickens and reduces to about 1/2 cup, about 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh strainer and let cool. Use at room temperature.
