- Brush the tenderloin with mustard . Sprinkle the tenderloin with the chopped herbs and place in the preheated oven.

Chef’s Notes: 20 minutes in the oven will make the beef medium rare if you wish to have your beef cooked more try adding 10 minutes for medium and 15 for medium well. Allowing the beef to rest is crucia
