A pepper rub gives this moist tender beef a bit of a zippy taste. It takes just minutes to prepare, and the meat slices well. Lining the baking pan with foil makes it a breeze to clean up, too. -Denise Bitner Reedsville, Pennsylvania Ingredients:
3 tablespoons coarsely ground pepper |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 beef tenderloin roast (3 to 4 pounds) |
Directions:
1. Combine the pepper, oil, lemon peel, salt and garlic; rub over tenderloin. Place on a greased rack in a foil-lined roasting pan. 2. Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 45-65 minutes or until beef reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°). Cover and let stand for 10 minutes before slicing. Yield: 10-12 servings. |
