This simple holiday beef recipe is a must-have for anyone who doesn't have time to cook but still dreams of delighting their guests with a royal dinner. The meat turns out incredibly juicy and tender, with a beautiful, savory crust. The secret is simple: roast the tenderloin on a baking sheet with a rack, first at the highest temperature (so you don't have to fry it in a pan), then at a medium temperature until done. Serve with a simple sauce of roasted bell peppers and olives.

Ingredients:

• 2 pieces of beef tenderloin weighing 1–1.2 kg each (center part)
• Extra virgin olive oil to brush the meat, plus 3 tablespoons butter for the sauce
• Steak seasoning
• 5 whole roasted sweet peppers, coarsely chopped, drained well
• 2 cloves garlic, peeled
• A handful of parsley
• 1 cup good quality pitted black olives, such as Kalamata, drained well
• Salt and pepper
• Slices of bread with crust

Preparation:

Step 1
• Preheat oven to 260°C.
Step 2
• Generously brush the meat with olive oil and sprinkle with steak seasoning. Place the meat on a baking rack or in an oven-safe baking dish. If you're roasting on a baking sheet without a rack, add a little water.
Step 3
• Bake the meat for 10 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 175°C and bake for another 30 minutes. Do not open the oven door for the first 10 minutes. Remove the meat from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Step 4
• Place the roasted peppers in a food processor and add the garlic, parsley, olives, salt, and pepper. Turn the processor on and pour in about 3 tablespoons of olive oil.
Step 5
• Slice the meat thinly across the grain and serve with bread and sauce.
