I have too much time on my hands:

delicious!

I made the yummiest dinner of my 10 years of cooking tonight. Here's the recipe (altered, because although I think you'll enjoy it, this is for me to be able to find again, and I didn't follow the directions 100%).

Ingredients:


  • 2 slices of white bread, toasted, crust removed

  • 3 tablespoons crumbled blue cheese

  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

  • pepper

  • oil

  • 4 - 3 oz center-cut beef tenderloin


  1. Preheat oven to 400

  2. Crumble toast into bowl with blue cheese, chives and pepper and blend to coarse paste

  3. Spray roasting pan with nonstick spray. Heat a large, nonstick skillet over high heat. Sear steak until just browned (about 1 minute per side)

  4. Arrange steak on roasting rack. Coat the top of each steak with the blue cheese mixture. Roast until the crust is golden brown and the meat is done to taste. It says 3 - 4 min is medium rare but ours were in 15 - 2o min to get to medium.

Part of what made this so delicious is the type of steak I bought. I have never had a more tender steak in my life - so don't scrimp on the steak! It's also a Weight Watchers meal! I think the only thing that makes it WW is the size of the steak. It was seriously the best thing I've ever made.
