Beef Tenderloin with garlic and herbs
Great recipe for a dinner with friends or a family get-together. You can also try using a pork tenderloin instead. The minimum safe internal cook temp on pork is 145°F. This recipe is great with roasted vegetables or any side of your choice. I challenge you to get creative and explore the ever-growing spice world. Enjoy this easy-to-make recipe from my home to yours.
