Step-by-Step Instructions
- Trim the silver skin and excess fat from the beef tenderloin. Pat dry and season with kosher salt and black pepper. Mince the garlic and chop thyme and rosemary.
- Heat the olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the tenderloin for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden-brown.
- Reduce heat to medium and add minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and unsalted butter. Baste the tenderloin for 2-3 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Transfer skillet to oven and roast until internal temperature reaches 125°F for medium-rare, about 15-20 minutes.
- Remove from oven, tent with foil, and rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice into 1/2-inch medallions.
- Arrange sliced tenderloin on a platter, drizzle with pan juices, and garnish with herbs. Serve with desired sides.

Notes
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the tenderloin for the best sear. Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness.
