Scale
Ingredients
- 1 (3 pound) beef tenderloin roast
- 0.75 cup soy sauce
- 0.5 cup melted butter
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) to prepare for baking the beef tenderloin evenly.
- Prepare the Roast: Place the beef tenderloin roast into a shallow, glass baking dish ensuring it fits comfortably for even cooking.
- Add Seasonings: Pour the soy sauce and melted butter evenly over the tenderloin, coating the meat to enhance its flavor and moisture during baking.
- Bake and Baste: Bake the tenderloin in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Then carefully turn the roast over and continue baking, basting occasionally with the soy sauce and butter mixture to keep it juicy. Continue until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees Celsius) for medium doneness, which should take approximately 35 to 40 minutes more. Adjust cooking time if you desire a different degree of doneness.
- Rest the Meat: Remove the roast from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing. This resting period helps the juices redistribute, resulting in a tender, flavorful beef tenderloin.
