To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1 beef tenderloin (6-8 oz)
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp olive oil
To start, preheat your oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture all over the beef tenderloin, making sure to coat it evenly.
Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the beef tenderloin and sear it on all sides until it is browned, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the beef tenderloin for 10-15 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, the internal temperature should be around 135°F.
Once the beef tenderloin is cooked to your liking, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
