Chef Renee Scharoff Beef Tenderloin Grill Stick with Roasted Garlic and Curry Mayo

Method

For the beef:

1. Bring your Australian beef tenderloin to room temp and season with salt and pepper.

2. Heat 1 tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil in your fry pan over medium-high heat.

3. Place your seasoned beef tenderloin into the hot pan and sear both sides until well browned.

4. Put the seared beef tenderloin into the oven for 5–7 minutes, or cook to your liking (120°F for rare, 125°F for medium-rare).

5. Take the tenderloin out of the oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes.

For the curry mayo:

1. Stir the mayonnaise and curry paste together until evenly combined.

For the microgreens:

1. Place lime zest and microgreens together in a bowl and gently toss.

Quick Roasted Garlic:

1. Take 1 cup of extra virgin olive oil and place into a saucepan.

2. Put 20 whole peeled fresh garlic cloves into the olive oil and bring to a rolling simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer the garlic cloves for about 1 minute, then turn the heat down to low. Let the garlic simmer on low heat until the garlic cloves are golden brown and soft.

3. Stir gently with a metal spoon to prevent sticking. If your garlic is browning too quickly, turn your heat down. When done, remove garlic cloves from oil and save the garlic oil for another use, like roasting vegetables or a vinaigrette.

To assemble:

1. Slice the Australian beef tenderloin into 1/4-inch slices and then cut each slice in half, squaring each side to match. Thread the beef tenderloin onto the grill stick.

2. Add the roasted garlic onto the end of the grill stick.

3. Place a small dollop of curry mayo onto each piece of beef tenderloin. Garnish with microgreens and lime zest salad.
