Ingredients
Scale
Beef Tenderloin
- 1 (3 pound) beef tenderloin roast
Marinade
- 0.75 cup soy sauce
- 0.5 cup melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to prepare for roasting the beef tenderloin.
- Prepare Roast: Place the beef tenderloin roast into a shallow glass baking dish. Pour the soy sauce and melted butter evenly over the roast, ensuring it is well coated.
- Initial Baking: Bake the roast in the preheated oven for 10 minutes to start the cooking process.
- Turn and Continue Cooking: After 10 minutes, turn the roast over and continue baking for an additional 35 to 40 minutes. Baste occasionally with the pan juices to keep the meat moist. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness, or adjust time for preferred doneness.
- Rest the Meat: Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a tender, juicy roast.
- Slice and Serve: Slice the beef tenderloin and serve warm, enjoying the rich flavors from the soy sauce and butter glaze.
Notes
- This tenderloin is incredibly tender and flavorful thanks to the simple soy sauce and butter marinade.
- The recipe requires only three ingredients and is easy to prepare.
- Resting the meat after baking is crucial for juicy, tender slices.
- Internal temperature of 140°F corresponds to medium doneness; cook longer for well done or less time for rare.
