Beef Tenderloin with Salad

Step 1

Pat the 1 lb beef tenderloin dry and season all over with 1 tsp salt.

Step 2

Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the beef and sear until browned on all sides, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare.

Step 3

Remove the beef from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Step 4

While the beef rests, slice the 4 radishes and 1 cucumber into thin rounds.

Step 5

In a large bowl, combine the 4 cups lettuce, sliced radishes, cucumber, and 1/4 cup parsley.

Step 6

Whisk together the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and the juice of 1 lemon. Pour over the salad and toss to coat.

Step 7

Slice the rested beef thinly against the grain.

Step 8

Serve the beef over the salad, drizzling any juices from the cutting board on top.
