Beef Tenderloin With Balsamic Sauce
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary or 2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1-1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
- 1 beef tenderloin roast (2 pounds)
- 2 cups port wine or 1 cup grape juice and 1 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- Combine the rosemary, garlic, salt and pepper; rub evenly over tenderloin. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Place meat on a rack in shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 400u0b0 for 50-70 minutes or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135u0b0; medium, 140u0b0; medium-well, 145u0b0). Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
- In a saucepan, bring wine or grape juice and broth to a boil; cook until reduced to 3/4 cup. Add vinegar; cook for 3-4 minutes or until reduced to a sauce consistency. Stir in butter, salt and pepper. Serve with tenderloin.
