INGREDIENTS

2 pounds center-cut beef tenderloin, trimmed
1/4 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons chopped fresh Italian parsley
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Tie the beef with butcher's string and rub with the olive oil. Combine the rosemary, parsley, thyme, and garlic and pat the mixture on the beef. Season the beef with salt and pepper.

Over high heat sear the beef in an ovenproof skillet, turning to brown all sides, about 5 minutes. Place the skillet directly into the oven and roast the beef for 20 to 25 minutes. Let the beef rest for 10 minutes before removing the string and slicing.
