Categories     appetizer

Time 14m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (10-ounce) piece beef tenderloin
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups lightly packed fresh arugula or fresh baby spinach
1/2-ounce shaved Parmesan
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Tie the beef tenderloin with kitchen twine to help maintain its shape, then freeze the tenderloin until frozen (this ensures that the center stays rare when cooking a small piece of meat). Then, heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a heavy small skillet over high heat. Rub the frozen beef with salt and pepper. Add the beef to the hot skillet and sear on all sides, about 4 minutes total (the beef will be just barely seared on the outside but will remain rare). Freeze the beef until it is almost frozen, about 1 hour (this makes it easier to cut into very thin slices). Using a large sharp carving knife, slice the beef as thinly as possible. Arrange the arugula and Parmesan shavings on a serving platter and lay the beef slices on top. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and serve.
  • Alternative: Use 6 ounces of thinly-sliced bresaola instead of the tenderloin. Do not cook the bresaola. Serve it as you would the tenderloin, above.

Categories     Antipasto

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 eggs
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup vegetable oil
2 dashes hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco™), or to taste
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper to taste
8 ounces frozen thinly sliced beef tenderloin carpaccio.
1 tablespoon capers, for garnish
1 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • In the container of a blender, combine the eggs, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, a pinch of salt and a dash of hot sauce. Cover and pulse to mix. Start the blender on medium speed and let run while pouring in the olive oil, and then the vegetable oil, in a thin continuous stream until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon. Pour in the Worcestershire sauce and blend for about 10 seconds more. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
  • Arrange the frozen beef on a serving plate in a semi-circle. Drizzle the sauce over the meat. Garnish with capers and freshly ground black pepper and squeeze a little lemon juice over the top. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
