Description
An exquisite appetizer featuring crispy crostini topped with succulent tenderloin and a creamy Béarnaise drizzle, perfect for impressing guests.
Ingredients
- Baguette or ciabatta bread
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper
- Tenderloin steak
- Béarnaise sauce
- Fresh herbs (such as tarragon or chives)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Slice the bread into ½-inch thick slices and arrange them on a baking sheet.
- Drizzle olive oil over each slice and sprinkle lightly with salt. Bake for 10-15 minutes until crispy and golden.
- Season the tenderloin with salt and pepper, and sear in a hot skillet for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare.
- Let the tenderloin rest, then slice thinly against the grain.
- Assemble by placing a slice of tenderloin on each crostini, drizzling with Béarnaise sauce, and garnishing with fresh herbs. Serve immediately.
Notes
To maintain crispiness, serve the crostini immediately after assembly. For dairy-free options, use a plant-based Béarnaise sauce.
