SEARED BEEF TENDERLOIN

--Nicole Bingham

Easy and delicious: that is my idea of a main course.

1 trimmed beef tenderloin

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

½ teaspoon garlic salt

1 teaspoon dried sage

1 teaspoon tarragon

Preheat oven to 400°.  Combine spices, salt, and pepper and rub or coat onto tenderloin.  In a lightly greased large frying pan, sear each side of the meat until just barely brown.  If possible, transfer tenderloin in frying pan to oven or place in a large roasting pan.  Roast for 15 – 20 minutes depending upon preference.  DO NOT OVERCOOK!  This is so moist and tender, you’ll love it!
