Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion salt
  • 1 beef tenderloin roast (3-1/2 pounds)
  • 1 cup beef broth

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. In a small bowl, combine the mustard, garlic, pepper, garlic salt and onion salt; brush over tenderloin. Place in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°), 45-50 minutes.
  2. Remove tenderloin from pan; let stand for 10-15 minutes before slicing. Meanwhile, add broth to pan drippings, stirring to loosen browned bits; heat through. Serve with sliced beef.
