By: Ruth Andrewson

"You don't need much seasoning to add flavor to this tender beef roast. The mild blending of rosemary, basil and garlic does the trick in this recipe from Ruth Andrewson of Leavenworth, Washington."

Original Recipe Yield 12 servings

Ingredients

1 (3 pound) whole beef tenderloin, trimmed
2 teaspoons olive or canola oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Tie tenderloin at 2-in. intervals with kitchen string. Combine oil and garlic; brush over meat. Combine the basil, rosemary, salt and pepper; sprinkle evenly over meat. Place on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 425 degrees F for 40-50 minutes or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145 degrees F; medium, 160 degrees F; well-done, 170 degrees F). Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
