This five-star meal would likely cost you around $25 in a restaurant, and that’s without the tip! Serve this to guests, and they’re sure to personally thank the chef. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Parmesan PointersWhen a recipe calls for shredded Parmesan cheese, use the cheese found in bags in the grocery store dairy section. Shredded Parmesan is often used in salads or soups where the shreds make a pretty garnish. If grated Parmesan is called for, use the finely grated cheese sold in containers with shaker/pourer tops. This type works well in lasagna and casseroles. (You can substitute either shredded or grated Parmesan in equal proportions in your favorite recipes.) If you decide to buy a chunk of Parmesan cheese and grate your own, be sure to use the finest section on your grating tool. You can also use a blender or food processor. Simply cut the cheese into 1-inch cubes and process 1 cup of cubes at a time on high until finely grated.

Loved this ! the steak was tender and yummy. I even tried the potatoes. I had never bought store made, but this was a nice way to spice them up and make them good. I may try just doing this with homemade potatoes as well.

I had never eaten beef tenderloin, much less cooked it, but wanted to try something different. The meat is very expensive, but fortunately a local butcher sales it for half the price of the out-of-state steaks in the grocery store. The first time I followed the recipe and while it was very tender, it was way to spicy for our taste. I have since cut the seasonings in half and we absolutely love it. I haven't tried the potato recipe because I make homemade mashed potatoes and also I don't like sage. Sometimes we slice it and make cheese steak sandwiches with provolone cheese and mayonaise in a toasted sub roll - also very delicious. We have made this many times and will continue to do so. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

This was a flavorful and easy recipe for tenderloin steaks. I did cut the spices and seasonings back by about 1/2 because our steaks were a little smaller than the recipe calls for (and I really wanted the sauteed onions to stand out) It only took about 9-10 minutes broiling on either side to reach a nice 'medium' stage. Very moist! My family LOVED it! I haven't tried the mashed potato part of the recipe yet, but this recipe is well worth a try just for the steak alone!

It was okay. The potatoes were really good. I'm going to keep that part of the recipe.
