Instructions
1

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Season the beef tenderloin generously with salt and pepper, then rub it with a mixture of minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and thyme.

2

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.

3

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the beef for 20-25 minutes, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

4

While the beef is roasting, prepare the mushroom risotto by heating olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat.

5

Add finely chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in Arborio rice and cook for 2 minutes, allowing it to absorb the oil.

6

Gradually add warm chicken broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently until the liquid is absorbed before adding more.

7

After about 15 minutes, add sautéed mushrooms and a drizzle of truffle oil, stirring until creamy. For the red wine reduction, combine red wine and beef stock in a saucepan over medium heat.

8

Simmer until reduced by half, about 10-15 minutes. Once the beef is done, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

9

Serve the sliced beef over a bed of mushroom risotto, drizzled with red wine reduction, and garnish with fresh herbs.
