Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 425°F. Toss potatoes and carrots with 2 tbsp oil, salt, and pepper on a sheet pan. Roast for 15 minutes until edges brown.

  2. Step 2

    Pat beef dry. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

  3. Step 3

    Heat 1 tbsp oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Sear beef 2 minutes per side until deep brown crust forms.

  4. Step 4

    Pour broth and vinegar into the skillet, scraping up browned bits. Stir in mustard and thyme, then simmer 3 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.

  5. Step 5

    Transfer beef to a cutting board and rest 5 minutes. Slice into half-inch-thick pieces.

  6. Step 6

    Serve beef and sauce alongside the roasted potatoes and carrots from the oven.
