Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Rub the tenderloin with the oil and Emeril’s Original Essence.
-
Heat a sauté pan large enough to hold the tenderloin over high heat until the pan is very hot. Sear the meat until evenly browned on all sides. Remove from the heat.
-
Line a shallow baking pan fitted with a wire rack with aluminum foil. Place the tenderloin on the rack. Rub the top and sides of the meat with the mustard.
-
Combine the horseradish, black pepper, garlic, and salt in a small mixing bowl. Using hands, press the horseradish mixture over the mustard on the top and sides of the tenderloin.
-
Roast the tenderloin for about 30 minutes for rare (120 to 125 degrees F on an instant meat thermometer) and about 35 minutes for medium-rare (130 to 140 degrees F on an instant meat thermometer).
-
Remove from the oven and rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Drizzle the beef with the wine reduction, if desired.
Port Wine Reduction:
-
Combine all of the ingredients in a medium-size saucepan over medium heat and bring to a boil. Continue to boil the mixture for 30 minutes, until it thickens and reduces to about half a cup.
-
Strain through a fine-mesh strainer and let cool. Use at room temperature.
