Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 center-cut beef tenderloin (2 pounds), trimmed of excess fat, tied
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
8 to 10 cloves Roasted Garlic
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh marjoram
1 baguette, halved horizontally and cut crosswise into 3 pieces
2 cups watercress, preferably baby

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Heat oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Generously season beef with salt and pepper. Add to skillet, and brown on all sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer skillet to oven.
  • Roast until beef registers 130 for medium-rare, 20 to 25 minutes. Let beef stand for 20 minutes. Cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
  • Meanwhile, mash garlic with a fork in a small bowl. Stir in mayonnaise, lemon juice, and herbs. Season with salt and pepper. (Garlic-herb mayonnaise can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.)
  • Spread 1 tablespoon of the mayonnaise onto each bread slice. Top with beef. Just before serving, add watercress. Season with salt and pepper.
