Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C).
2. Prepare the Beef Tenderloin: Rub the beef tenderloin with olive oil, minced garlic, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Make sure the roast is evenly coated with the seasonings.
3. Roast the Beef: Place the seasoned beef tenderloin on a roasting pan and cook it in the preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches your desired doneness.
4. Prepare the Cognac Dijon Sauce: While the beef is roasting, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan, combine the beef broth and Cognac, then bring the mixture to a boil. Let it simmer for a few minutes to reduce slightly.
5. Finish the Sauce: Reduce the heat to low and whisk in the Dijon mustard and heavy cream. Cook the sauce for a few more minutes until it thickens to a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Slice and Serve: Once the beef tenderloin is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the tenderloin slices with the luscious Cognac Dijon sauce drizzled over the top.
