\"crostini\"<\/a><\/p>\n

1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest
\n1 1\/2 teaspoons chili powder
\n1 teaspoon sea salt
\n1 (1 1\/2-pound) center-cut beef tenderloin, trimmed
\n1 tablespoon olive oil
\n24 thin slices of an 8-ounce French baguette (about 1\/2-inch thick), toasted<\/p>\n

Basque Green Sauce<\/p>\n

Assortment of fresh herbs and greens, as desired (try arugula, basil, etc.)<\/p>\n

In a small bowl, combine orange zest, chili powder, and salt. Rub tenderloin with spice mixture. Set aside for 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 450\u00c2\u00b0.. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef on all sides until it is brown and caramelized, about 4 minutes per side (12\u00e2\u20ac\u201c16 minutes total). Transfer skillet to oven and roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 125\u00c2\u00b0 for medium-rare (15\u00e2\u20ac\u201c20 minutes). Transfer beef to a cutting board to rest for 20 minutes, then thinly slice. Top each baguette slice with sliced beef, about 1 teaspoon green sauce, and, if using, herbs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
