Tenderloin Tip Crostini with Horseradish Cream

Ingredients

    For the Beef:

    • 1 lb Thousand Hills Tenderloin Tips
    • 1 tbsp Thousand Hills Beef Tallow
    • 1 tsp sea salt
    • ½ tsp black pepper
    • 1 tsp garlic powder
    • 1 tsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped

    For the Horseradish Cream:

    • ½ cup sour cream
    • 1 ½ tbsp horseradish (more to taste)
    • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
    • 1 tsp lemon juice
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    For the Crostini:

    • 1 baguette, sliced into ½ - inch rounds
    • 2 tbsp Thousand Hills Beef Tallow
    • Optional garnish: fresh thyme or arugula

    Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet, brush lightly with soft tallow, and toast 8-10 minutes until golden and crisp. Set aside to cool.

    2. In a small bowl, whisk together sour cream, horseradish, Dijon, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust heat level as desired. Chill until ready to serve.

    3. Heat tallow in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Season beef with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and rosemary. Sear 2-3 minutes per side, until browned and cook to medium-rare (130-135°F).

    4. Spread a small dollop of horseradish cream on each toasted baguette slice. Top with a few Tenderloin Tips and garnish with thyme or arugula if desired.

    5. Arrange on a platter and serve warm or at room temperature.
