Recipe by Bruce Aidells
Lightly salting a center-cut tenderloin, a.k.a. chateaubriand, overnight allows the salt to penetrate this luxurious roast and keep it extra-flavorful and juicy.
Ingredients
1 4-pound center-cut beef tenderloin, fat and silverskin trimmed
Kosher salt
4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper plus more for seasoning
2/3 cup fine fresh breadcrumbs made from day-old white bread
2/3 cup finely grated Parmesan
2/3 cup mayonnaise
4 anchovy fillets packed in oil, drained, finely chopped
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
4 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Instructions
Season tenderloin lightly with salt and pepper. Wrap in plastic; refrigerate overnight.
Uncover tenderloin; let stand at room temperature for at least 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 400 °F. Set a rack inside a rimmed baking sheet. Transfer tenderloin to rack. Pulse 4 teaspoons black pepper and remaining ingredients in a small food processor until well blended. Generously and evenly spread and pack Parmesan mixture around tenderloin.
Roast until crust is golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of tenderloin registers 110 °F-115 °F for rare and 120 °F-125 °F for medium-rare, 30-40 minutes.
Transfer to a carving board. Let rest for 20 minutes. Cut into 1/2"-thick slices, taking care not to lose too much of the delicate crust.
