1 3-lb. beef tenderloin, trimmed of fat<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

2 T. extra-virgin olive oil<\/p>\n

1 tsp. kosher salt<\/p>\n

1\/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper<\/p>\n

2\/3 C. chopped mixed fresh herbs, such as chives, parsley, chervil, tarragon, thyme<\/p>\n

2 T. Dijon mustard<\/p>\n

\u00c2\u00a0\"bistro\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.\u00c2\u00a0 Tie kitchen string around tenderloin in three places so it doesn’t flatten while roasting. Rub the tenderloin with oil; pat on salt and pepper. Place in a large roasting pan.\u00c2\u00a0 Roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin registers 140 degrees F for medium-rare, about 45 minutes, turning two or three times during roasting to ensure even cooking. Transfer to a cutting board; let rest for 10 minutes. Remove the string.\u00c2\u00a0 Place herbs on a large plate. Coat the tenderloin evenly with mustard; then roll in the herbs, pressing gently to adhere. Slice and serve.<\/p>\n

Roasting Tips<\/p>\n

1. Very cold meat won’t roast evenly. Place it on the counter while preheating the oven.<\/p>\n

2. Durable cotton kitchen string is sold at kitchenware stores, most gourmet markets and large supermarkets. Do not use sewing thread or yarn, which may contain inedible dyes or unsavory chemicals.<\/p>\n

3. A heavy-duty, high-sided roasting pan is essential for conducting heat evenly. Never substitute a cookie sheet. A broiler pan will work in a pinch, but the roast will inevitably be somewhat chewier.<\/p>\n

4. Give it a rest. A roast’s internal temperature will rise about 10 degrees while resting. The natural juices will also reincorporate into the meat’s fibers and the skin or crust will dry out slightly for a more toothsome yet more succulent dinner.<\/p>\n
