Ingredients (serves 4):

- 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1/4 cup balsamic glaze

Cooking Tips:
- Make sure to trim the beef tenderloin before cooking to remove any excess fat.

Cooking Process:
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Season the beef tenderloin with salt and pepper and rub with olive oil.
2. Heat a large oven-safe skillet over high heat. Add the beef tenderloin and sear on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
3. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast for 10-12 minutes, or until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness.
4. Remove the skillet from the oven and let the beef rest for 5 minutes before slicing thinly.
5. In a large bowl, toss the arugula, cherry tomatoes, and red onion with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
6. Divide the salad among four plates and top with the sliced beef tenderloin.
