- 2 shallots, finely minced
- 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- ½ cup dry red wine (such as cabernet sauvignon or merlot)

- 1 tbsp dairy free butter

Instructions

Remove the tenderloin from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking and pat it completely dry with paper towels. Season all over with the kosher salt and black pepper, pressing gently so the seasoning adheres.

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Heat 1 tbsp of the olive oil in a 12-inch oven-safe skillet over high heat until the oil just begins to smoke. Add the tenderloin and sear, turning with tongs every 1–2 minutes, until deeply browned on all sides, about 6–8 minutes total. Lay the thyme sprigs and rosemary sprigs alongside the beef in the pan.
