Stuffed Tenderloin
- 1 (3-pound) beef tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons light butter
- 1 (8-ounce) package sliced mushrooms
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese
- 1 tablespoon light butter, melted
- Cooking spray
- Prepare grill by piling charcoal on one side of grill, leaving other side empty. (For gas grills, light only 1 side.)
- Slice tenderloin lengthwise to, but not through, the center, leaving 1 long side connected; set aside.
- Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and next 3 ingredients; cook 5 minutes or until tender, stirring often. Spoon mixture into opening of tenderloin, leaving a 1/2-inch border on all sides. Sprinkle cheese over mushroom mixture. Close tenderloin, and tie securely with heavy string at 2-inch intervals. Brush with melted butter.
- Place tenderloin on unlit side of grill rack coated with cooking spray; cover and grill 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 145u0b0 (medium-rare) to 160u0b0 (medium). Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
